Dung Ho! Pirates of the Veld is out today!

Keep rollin' rollin' rollin'!

28th July 2026, USA. Today Lesser Weevil’s (made up from celebrated personnel) chaotic co-op crap fest is unbelievably steaming! Complete with pirate enemies, campaigns, and endless achievements, it is a whopper of a FULL RELEASE . The team behind this dung beetle-powered adventure definitely know their shit - they’re the experts behind Borderlands, Borderlands 2, and Skylanders.

Turd is the word!

In Dung Ho! up to six players work together as determined dung beetles, rolling their precious prize across Africa while dodging wildlife, overcoming chaotic physics-based obstacles, and trying very hard not to completely ruin everything for everyone else. The latest evolution of the game packs in more fun, frustration and foul smells, making now an excellent time to jump into excretion excitement.

Can six beetles successfully escort an enormous ball of dung home without everything going horribly wrong?

 

Chaos on the poop deck with Pirates of the Veld!

  • Pirate enemies galore
  • A mysterious thrilling ​ climbing challenge, plus a lot more…….
  • Exciting Safari adventures ​ plus………
  • More ways to customize your beetle
  • Lot and lots of ​ achievements for those brave (or foolish) enough to chase them

 

Grab your mates and get ready to push, protect and patch up one very precious ball of poop. Easy to pick up but guaranteed to descend into a huge mess, every 30-60 minute run is packed with near misses, questionable teamwork and the kind of hilarious disasters that happen when your biggest obstacle is your friends and their bright ideas.

 

Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines!
