Cheats & Secrets for Gang Beasts
Overview
Gang Beasts is a physics-based brawler with no traditional cheat codes, unlock codes, or secret commands that affect gameplay. The developers intentionally avoided such features to maintain the pure chaotic experience. However, there are several hidden features and Easter eggs that players can discover.
Cheat Codes
None. No cheat codes exist for any platform (PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch). Entering button combinations or using third-party trainers will not yield any official results. The game has no built-in cheat system.
Unlock Codes
None. All cosmetic outfits are unlocked by meeting specific gameplay milestones (e.g., playing certain stages, winning matches) or by purchasing DLC packs. There are no codes to unlock items or characters.
Secret Commands
None. There are no secret button inputs or keyboard commands that trigger special abilities, invincibility, or level skips. (Note: On PC, pressing `F1` toggles a debug overlay showing FPS and physics information—this is a developer tool, not a secret command, and does not affect gameplay.)
Hidden Features & Easter Eggs
Despite the lack of cheats, Gang Beasts is filled with humorous details and Easter eggs that are part of the game's design. These are safe, developer-intended discoveries:
- Stage Easter Eggs:
- Developer-Intended Content:
- Incinerator: If a character is thrown into the fire pit, a tiny "marshmallow" roasting animation may play on the character model (rare occurrence).
- Buoy: A giant, harmless whale occasionally swims in the background water. If a character falls into the water near it, they may be nudged by the whale's wake.
- Haunted: A ghostly figure (often called the "Ghost Train") passes through the stage periodically.
- Wheel: After a match ends, a giant disco ball might descend from the ceiling if all players are eliminated simultaneously (visual only).
- Mountain: There is a hidden cave behind a waterfall that characters can enter (requires precise physics manipulation to reach).
- The game's credits sequence contains a humorous "Director's Cut" ending if you let it play fully without skipping—displays extra animations and developer jokes.
- All character costumes are unlockable through gameplay milestones or DLC; no secret outfits are hidden behind codes.
Conclusion
Gang Beasts relies on its physics-based chaos rather than cheat codes. The secrets and Easter eggs are purely cosmetic or environmental, encouraging exploration and laughter. There is no gameplay-altering hidden content, so enjoy the mayhem as intended.
