Moving Out — Steam Gift

Moving Out — the co-op moving sim for Steam, sent as a gift

Moving Out is a goofy physics-based moving simulator from Australia's SMG Studio together with DEVM Games, published by Team17 on April 28, 2020. You join the Smooth Moves removals company and, alongside a cast of colourful characters, haul furniture out of houses and into a van. Sounds simple? Sure — until the fridge wedges in a doorway, the sofa sails into the pool, and the TV has to go straight out a second-floor window. Quite literally. What you get here is a Steam gift: a friend bot sends Moving Out straight to your account, you accept the gift, and the game stays in your library forever. This is a full purchase you own outright — not a rental and not a subscription. Accept the gift once and Moving Out belongs to your account with no expiry.

What this game is

At its heart Moving Out is exaggerated physics plus co-op for up to four players. You can solo it, but the magic happens when you and friends grab the same couch from different ends and drag it in opposite directions. Levels are houses, offices, farms and increasingly absurd locations where you clear out all the furniture against the clock. Faster and tidier means a better score — though tidy is nearly impossible, and that's the whole point. Furniture bounces off walls, windows shatter, and the shortest route to the van almost always runs through something fragile.

Story and vibe

The action unfolds in the made-up town of Packmore, where your character is a fresh recruit at Smooth Moves. From ordinary apartments the jobs gradually drift into total absurdity: moves across water, farms with animals scattering everywhere, haunted locations, and stages that bend the usual rules of physics. The humour is visual and situational — the game doesn't bog you down with long dialogue, it just drops you into ridiculous situations and watches you scramble. The bright cartoon style and upbeat soundtrack make every session feel like a short, funny cartoon you act out yourself.

What's included in the gift

This is the base Moving Out game with all its core levels, modes and character customisation. It ships with an Assist Mode for adjustable difficulty and broad accessibility options, from a dyslexia-friendly font to fully remappable controls. Assist Mode deserves a mention: it lets you remove the timer, make heavy objects easier to carry and tune difficulty for any group — from kids to anyone who just wants a relaxed, no-rush session. The Movers in Paradise add-on (tropical resort-island levels) is NOT included — it's a separate DLC that requires the base game, and you can grab it later on Steam if you want. So this gift is exactly the foundation your Moving Out journey starts from.

How to receive the gift on Steam

This is a Steam gift, not a key — there are no activation codes here. After you place the order, the FZR friend bot adds you on Steam (or you add it yourself), then sends Moving Out as a gift straight to your library. All you do is click 'Accept Gift' — there's no separate request to confirm. Once it's delivered the bot removes you from its friends list, and Moving Out is yours forever. The whole thing usually takes just a couple of minutes. If you don't have Steam yet, you can download it free from the official site and create an account in a couple of minutes.

What you need to accept the gift

A couple of simple conditions for a smooth delivery. Steam Guard isn't required to accept the gift — no extra security fuss. Your Steam account region must match the gift's region — that's Steam's own rule for gifts. And the game must not already be in your library — you can't receive as a gift something you already own. With those three boxes ticked, the bot hands you the game without a hitch.

Solo or with friends

One player can clear every level alone, but Moving Out was built as couch co-op. Up to four players share one screen locally, and there's online play too — for that each participant needs their own copy. Co-op here isn't just 'two-player optional', it's a genuine test of communication: who grabs the wardrobe, who holds the door, who runs the small stuff while the rest wrestle the sofa. That's exactly why Moving Out is a party and family favourite. If you're after more group chaos, check out Overcooked 2 and the wobbly physics of Human: Fall Flat — the same friendly-mayhem energy.

Will it run on your PC

It's light and runs comfortably on modest machines and laptops — this isn't a graphics monster but a tidy stylised game that's happy on humble hardware. It's natively Windows; on Steam Deck and Linux it runs through the Proton compatibility layer, and plenty of players take it on the go specifically for handheld co-op sessions. Controller support is full, which for a couch-format game is practically essential. If you enjoy cartoonish co-op adventures full of drama and laughs, also take a look at It Takes Two, another co-op benchmark.

Why get the gift from us

You get a regular game gifted to you on Steam, landing on your own account — Moving Out becomes your property just like any purchase from the Steam store. No shared accounts, no rental and no codes: the bot gifts it, you accept, the game's in your library — play. A gift takes the serial-number headache away — everything runs inside the client you already use.
