At the beginning of last year, Epic Games took over the Tonic Games Group, of which Mediatonic Limited is a part, that is, the developers of Fall Guys. Already at that time, Epic promised to release a version for Xbox and Nintendo Switch of Fall Guys: Ultimate KnockoutAnd that day has finally arrived. Hereinafter, the battle royale It can be enjoyed on almost any platform, and the game itself brings a lot of new features, as Epic Games has opted to give this game the same business model as Fortnite.
Fall Guys goes multiplatform and free-to-play
In August 2020, YouTube and Twitch were filled with games of a fast-paced game very similar to Takeshi's castle (Yellow Humor) in which dozens of players went through tests full of jumps and ramps, all visually very attractive and full of color. The objective was always to reach the finish line in a limited time or not to be eliminated in each test. Only one player could win each game, and that is why many were bitten in order to win a victory in their record. The problem is that the video game was only released for PlayStation and PC through Steam.
With the arrival of Epic GamesWe knew that things were going to change, and that's how it has been. First of all, Fall Guys becomes a game free-to-play, as well as a cross-platform title. Players who already owned a copy of Fall Guys purchased from the PlayStation Store or Steam will be able to continue playing without issue, but new PC players will have to go through Epic Games to download the game.
The new version of the game will be compatible with Nintendo Switch and Xbox consoles. Epic has also guaranteed that both PlayStation 5 and PC users will benefit from the performance increase the game has experienced. Of course, the cross game it will be a reality.

There will also be a new season pass improved with up to 100 levels and that will allow us to unlock dozens of objects. Players who already owned the game before it went free will also receive a Legacy Pack with various cosmetic items and a free Season Pass for this new Season 1.
