Evaluation

Pit of Goblin entered Early Access on December 17, 2024 and has been actively developed since, with Friendly Foe delivering a steady stream of major updates: the Exploration Update (February 2025), the large "Goblin Update" with new biomes and enemies (June 2025), the sweeping "Patch of Goblin" overhaul (October 2025), and a feature patch in February 2026. On September 21, 2026 — just one day before today's assessment — the developer announced that version 1.0 will launch on November 3, 2026. That update will include two new biomes (The Undergrowth and The Great Library), a magic books and spells system, cross-platform play with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, an expanded player limit of up to six goblins, and additional new systems and enemies. The developer describes 1.0 as their "base vision for the game" and explicitly states they still have a large backlog of ideas for future updates beyond 1.0. The game is still in Early Access with confirmed content arriving on November 3, 2026.

About this game

Ever dreamt of being the lowest of the low, living a life so nasty and gnarly that even the rats look down on you? Well, in Pit of Goblin, that’s every day! Slap on your stinkiest boots and dive into crumbling crypts, ghastly caverns, and ghost-infested ruins. Every step is fraught with peril and surprise! Your purpose is feeding the King Queen’s bottomless gut. The best part? You can drag your goblin buddies along for the misery!

Join forces with up to three goblin buddies. Teamwork is key... unless, of course, you are the kind of goblin that prefers causing trouble! Will you stick together, or sneak off and get into mischief? Either way, it’s gonna be gobliny chaos.

Every crawl through the Pit is a brand-new goblin tale, whether you're dodging deadly traps or tripping over your own oversized feet. No two runs smell the same!

The deeper you go, the tougher the challenge. Don't forget, you have to find your way back out... if you want to live to see another day.

Scavenge for food and decide whether to hand over your spoils to the King Queen. Chow it down yourself to gain stamina, or sell some at the shop to prepare for your next descent – but one wrong move could mean the end of your miserable existence.

You’ve been warned: the King Queen’s belly is a bottomless pit. They’ve always got room for more grub... or goblins!

You’ll stumble through dungeons so spooky, even your toenails will curl! Whether it’s terrifying tombs, cursed corridors, or just plain goblin goofiness, nothing in the Pit goes smoothly. Every meal is an adventure.

Will you hoard your loot to survive, or play it safe and keep the King Queen happy? The choice is yours. Every dive into the Pit offers the chance to upgrade your gear, but beware, disappointing the King Queen could be your downfall!

Gameplay and features

Pit of Goblin is a co-op survival extraction game. You can tackle it solo, but it’s recommended to play with friends (or random teammates through matchmaking). The aim is to descend into the Pit and search for food and other valuables. 

Throughout the different depths of the Pit are monsters and nasties that will try to kill you and your goblin friends or steal the food you have successfully found. Run, hide, but don’t forget to watch your step. Otherwise, you might fall victim to traps that can hurt or even kill you.

Goblins have the ability to sprint, jump, and fill their limited pockets with loot. Big items might need both hands, though! Eating certain items may give you a buff, or you could try using them as a weapon or distraction by throwing them!

Your task is to feed the King Queen and keep them sated. Manage to deliver enough food and they’ll send you right back into the Pit once again, only they get greedier each time, increasing the amount needed to still their hunger. The further down you go into the Pit, the greater the rewards – but is it worth the risk?

Sell your loot in the goblin village and exchange your precious coins for torches, magical lanterns, armor, and other useful items. The goblin merchant has it all! Or swing by the curio shop and procure special communication stones for the right price!

Be daring and explore the Pit – the King Queen is hungry!
