Dumpster Gang is set to make its debut on December 3, 2026, across multiple platforms including Steam, Xbox on PC, and PC Game Pass. In anticipation of its release, publisher Curve Games and developer Coyote House Games have unveiled a demo during the Steam Next Fest, allowing players to immerse themselves in the raccoon-themed sandbox experience either solo or with a group of up to three friends.

The demo offers a glimpse into the game’s mechanics, featuring a tutorial and the first two levels where players can engage in a variety of activities such as snatching snacks, rummaging through refuse, capturing chickens, and even brewing a surprisingly palatable cup of coffee.
Team Up for Tiny Crimes and Heavy Loot
In Dumpster Gang, players embody mischievous raccoons on a quest for treasure and chaos. The cooperative gameplay encourages teamwork as players tackle challenges like transporting hefty loot, solving intricate puzzles, and rescuing teammates who may find themselves in precarious situations. However, the gang must remain vigilant; making too much noise could attract the attention of the Exterminator, leading to a frantic escape from traps and potential capture. The intuitive controls enhance the sandbox experience, allowing players to transform minor thefts into elaborate escapades.
Bring Stolen Decorations Back to Your Hideout
After each mission, players return to their hideout, a customizable space where stolen treasures can be displayed. This feature not only adds a personal touch but also allows for the customization of your raccoon character, including the ability to earn unique hats that grant various abilities. As the first title from Coyote House Games, Dumpster Gang promises an engaging blend of humor and creativity, launching on December 3 with day-one access for PC Game Pass subscribers. For those eager to dive in, the free demo is currently available on Steam.
