Gather Your Goblin Friends for All Haul the King
Developer Housefire has announced that All Haul the King, a chaotic 2–4 player co-op platformer, will launch on PC via Steam on January 22, 2027. The game puts players in control of a group of goblin underlings tasked with an unusual mission: dragging their enormous, deceased king to the Throne of Resurrection.
Although bringing the Goblin King back to life sounds straightforward, his massive body makes the journey anything but easy. Players must work together to haul the floppy monarch across dangerous environments, including ruined battlefields and fiery volcanoes, while navigating tricky terrain, solving puzzles, and avoiding obstacles that threaten to send the king tumbling into the abyss.
Teamwork will be essential, but players will also have some rather unusual tools at their disposal. They can feed the king stars, flowers, animals, and even other players to see how his body reacts. Experimenting with different items could reveal useful ways to move his enormous corpse past obstacles, although not every experiment is guaranteed to go as planned.
“When all else fails, maybe a little goblin magic is what your group needs,” said Emil Forsén, co-founder of Housefire. “We included peculiar, magical fruits and even animals to help move the king around … and prank your friends! It’s a high-risk, high-reward game, but a little light ribbing never hurt no one! Well, it might, but they’ll respawn. Consider it a teambuilding exercise!”
All Haul the King launches on January 22, 2027, for $7.99, with support for English, Chinese, German, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. Its ridiculous premise and emphasis on teamwork could make this one a fun choice for friends looking for a chaotic co-op adventure.
