Dumpster Gang Announced for Consoles
During today’s Nintendo Indie World showcase, Curve Games and Coyote House Games have announced that their chaotic co-op game Dumpster Gang will be coming to consoles in March 2027. This release date will come just a few months after the game launches on PC on December 3.
In Dumpster Gang, players can team up with up to four friends to scavenge trash, steal junk, raid snacks, and commit tiny crimes as raccoons. Players will need to carry heavy loot together and solve puzzles to rescue captured teammates, all while running and hiding from an exterminator determined to hunt them down. After each mission, players can return to their hideout to customize their raccoon, unlock hats with unique abilities, and decorate their base with stolen goods.
Dumpster Gang will release on Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Players will be able to roll, slide, flip, and grapple through a seamless, handcrafted world. There are dozens of frenzied bosses to encounter, and plenty of friends to meet along the way, such as a Mothbug companion who helps with exploration and combat.
