How does Untitled Goose Game co-op work?

Untitled Goose Game now lets two players control two geese at the same time. It’s the same levels as before, but friends can now team up and work together.

The new goose looks a little different than the original. You can tell them apart because the new one has a basal knob, which is a pretty noticeable bump on the base of a bird’s bill.

The co-op mode is local only. However, on certain platforms — like Steam’s Remote Play Together or PlayStation 4 Share Play — it’s possible to play over the internet with a friend through streaming.

On the Nintendo Switch, two players can play at the same time using the right and left Joy-Cons. On a computer, one player can use a mouse and a keyboard, and the other player can use a non-keyboard controller.

Where can I play Untitled Goose Game?

The game is currently available for PC, Mac, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Steam, and Itch.io.

There are two physical versions of the game available as well through Skybound Games and iam8bit.

PC Game Pass will now tell you how long it takes to beat games on the service
Microsoft Edge gaming updates on screen in a room.

Microsoft is integrating data from the website How Long To Beat into Game Pass. The company announced its partnership with the IGN-owned website Wednesday, saying it will update the Xbox app on Windows to give Game Pass subscribers time estimates on the game details pages for most of the service's titles on PC.

How Long To Beat is a community-driven website that specializes in calculating the amount of time it takes to play through games, depending on your playstyle. If you just want to get through the main story for Death Stranding, for example, it will take you 40 hours to see the credits roll. If you're a completionist and want to finish the main story, side quests, and unlock every single achievement the game has to offer, it will take you 113 hours (which is a little less than five days) to achieve 100% completion.
