Party Animals takes physics-based party games like Gang Beasts and adds onto it with different game modes, maps, items, and most importantly (of course), characters. There are plenty of characters, otherwise known as animals, that fans can unlock and play as throughout Party Animals.

Party Animals: Best Moves

Players should try these effective moves during a match in Party Animals for the best (and most devastating) results.

Each animal has a grand multitude of skins that can also be unlocked, adding even more depth to the animal that players choose to use when jumping into a game. Not only can fans find easter eggs that reference other franchises through the animals' different skins, but Party Animals is no shier than Fortnite to include crossovers so that players can use some of their favorite characters born of other IPs.

7 Ori Crossover

Ori and Naru outfits

In the first-ever collaborative item shop event, Party Animals and Ori delivered two amazing cosmetics that fans could purchase. In this crossover with Ori, Party Animals created two different outfits that players could dawn:

One was Ori itself, a spiritual creature who became destined to save their land. The second costume was Naru, who took in a lost Ori and raised them as her own child. Both costumes look fantastic and are independent of the other animals.

6 F.I.S.T. Crossover

In a surprising, yet also not very surprising, twist of the item shop page, Party Animals welcomed its second collaboration. This time, Party Animals met with F.I.S.T.: Forged In Shadow Torch to conjure up a very creative outfit for Carrot (Carrot is the bunny animal that players can choose in Party Animals).

Seeing as Rayton, the protagonist of F.I.S.T., is a rabbit with a cybernetic arm that fights against bad guys, Party Animals could have not found a better fit for their playable bunny character. The Rayton costume for Carrot is even fitted with a neat mechanical arm. This outfit could be purchased from the item shop.

5 Darth Vader & Stormtrooper Outfits

Although there is no true IP collab between Star Wars and Party Animals, that didn't stop Recreate Games from including very obvious references to the titan of a franchise. Harry, the duck character in Party Animals, can be found to have both Darth Vader and Stormtrooper-inspired costumes.

Both outfits make very subtle references to Star Wars in their descriptions as if the looks themselves weren't enough to give it away. While the Stormtrooper-inspired skin can be unlocked through leveling up, the Darth Vader outfit is obtained through Surprise Eggs.

4 Half-Life Crossover — Gordon Outfit

Nemo's Gordon outfit

Although there was never a true welcome with the Half-Life crossover in Party Animals, many would state that Half-Life is the true first IP to collaborate with Party Animals. Many gamers may miss this skin entirely if they weren't to look through Nemo's getups.

Party Animals: How To Throw

Party Animals is a chaotic and fun party game, and here is how players can throw objects at their opponents.

Near the end of Nemo's ensemble list is the 'Gordon Nemo' skin, which states in its description, "He doesn't talk much." Fitted with glasses and a recognizable vest, this Nemo stands out to be one of the best costumes in the game for fans of the Half-Life franchise. To fetch this Gordon outfit, players will need to get the 'G-Man' achievement (win five games on the Black Hole Lab map).

3 Sherlock Holmes Outfit

Harry's detective outfit

Sherlock Holmes has inspired many creative thinkers since Arthur Conan Doyle first wrote about the peculiar detective back in 1887. Now, many fans of the detective stories will most likely recognize the deerstalker hat that Sherlock Holmes is said to so famously sport on his trips.

Within Harry's outfits, is the 'Detective Harry' look, which showcases the duck cosplaying as the famous Sherlock Holmes. In this costume's description, players will read, "All detectives look like this."

2 Harry Potter — Gryffindor Outfit

Like Star Wars, Harry Potter has no firm collaborative ties with Party Animals, but who's to stop Recreate from giving fans the option to sport Gryffindor colors on the owl character, MoonMoon? With round glasses that easily resemble Harry Potter's character and a red and yellow scarf to showcase Gryffindor's house colors, this MoonMoon outfit is a sharp reference to the magical franchise.

This getup, which is titled, 'Magic Moon,' even has a description that reads, "Accio maney," which is a simple throwback to old Harry Potter memes that discussed using "Accio money." To acquire the Magic Moon outfit, players will have to hope they collect it through the Surprise Eggs system.

1 Sith Outfit

Levi's Dark Force outfit

The Stormtrooper and Darth Vader (inspired) fits were not the only skins that Recreate Games decided to reference Star Wars with. If fans switch over to the Levi character, a dark-colored grumpy cat, they will notice a very recognizable costume in Levi's locker.

This ensemble is called, 'Dark Force Levi,' which is a reference enough to Star Wars. With this outfit, Levi wears a large black cloak that covers the top of his eyes, much like Palpatine or Anakin. Under said cloak, is a top that very much resembles the one that Anakin would wear in the later Prequel movies. Like the other Star Wars-esque fits, this Levi outfit is obtained by gambling with the Surprise Eggs system.
