Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is the talk of the town in the gaming universe. Millions worldwide are addicted to this newly-released party game and it’s not hard to see why.
With its bizarre characters, bright colours and surprisingly simple controls, Fall Guys brings a whole new meaning to the battle royale genre.
The game is extremely popular on streaming services such as Twitch. What’s more, it has already racked up over two million sales on PC alone.
Fall Guys is available on PS4 and Steam and is currently free for PlayStation Plus members this month only.
How to play Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout
In this game show-style battle royale, up to 60 players compete in various obstacle courses with the aim of being the last one standing.
Each level or course has a different method of completion. Whether it’s balancing on a spinning beam, avoiding huge swinging balls or racing to the finish line, you must do it better than the other players or you’ll be eliminated.
To control your character, all you need to do is jump, dive and grab. Although the controls are simple, winning is anything but easy which makes the game so addictive.
The best way to improve in Fall Guys is simply to keep practising. Take your time and work with others to get as far as possible in this chaotic and compelling party game.
Collaborations are on the cards
Fall Guys developers, Mediatonic, have already collaborated with Dennaton Games’ Hotline Miami with an exclusive costume based on the game.
Due to the sheer popularity and love of Fall Guys, many gaming companies and studios have publicly stated their openness for collaboration with the hit game.
KFC Gaming, Cyberpunk 2077 and Hitman are just three of many that have indicated a possibility for collaboration.

Cheaters have been exposed
To become victorious in Fall Guys takes both a mixture of luck and skill. Sadly, some players have discovered hacks which give themselves a distinct advantage over others.
These hacks have seen people speed through the map and warp through objects which is no fun for anyone.
Mediatonic have acknowledged these hackers and say that they are “working on it”.
There’s always some that spoil the fun for the rest of us!
We're aware of the speedhackers and are working on it 👌
