Popular Quest Multiplayer Game ‘Animal Company’ Receives PvP Shooter Update

Sure thing, let’s dive into this, shall we? So, I stumbled across this wild update for Animal Company—yup, that VR game everyone’s buzzing about on Quest. They’ve tossed in something they’re calling ‘Arena Mode’ and, boy, talk about chaos! I mean, it’s like they threw a shooting gallery right into the middle of everything. Why? Who knows.

Alright, picture this: Animal Company already had its whole ‘Adventure Mode’ thing going on—apparently inspired by that Lethal Company game from 2023. But now, they’ve crammed in this 6v6 shootout, Battle Royale chaos. They’re like, "Hey, here’s a base. Defend it or don’t, your call. But definitely try to take down the other team’s ore." Sounds kind of like Minecraft’s Bed Wars but with guns and, of all things, pickaxes. Infinite ammo, too. Just spray and pray, right? Classic.

The game’s been keeping pretty busy with updates. They’ve rolled out this Tech Tree thing, some Mining shenanigans, and even a Planetarium. Not to mention, new maps for that Adventure Mode—can’t forget The Office or that bizarre Parkour Tower. Really? Who dreams these up?

So since Animal Company hit Quest, like last July, it’s been a rocket. Overthrew that well-known Gorilla Tag game, which apparently was in the top spot forever. Now it’s chilling at number one on the Quest charts—at least, that’s what Meta’s latest numbers say.

Oh, and if you’re tempted, you can snag Animal Company for free on the Horizon Store—if you’ve got a Quest 2 or better. Just a heads up: they’ve got micro-transactions. You know, for cosmetics and currency bundles. Because, of course, right?
