‘Fall Guys’ racks up 2 million players
    2020-08-12  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

“Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout” is a fairly cute and charming take on battle royale genre, and its blend of racing competition and jelly bean blobs appears to be a big hit.

Developer Mediatonic and publisher Devolver Digital announced that over two million players have jumped into the “Fall Guys” world on Steam. That’s a pretty significant launch for a game that isn’t a big triple-A blockbuster, and it’s even bigger when you consider the fact that’s two million players shelling out US$20 on Steam for the game.

“Fall Guys” came to the PS4 in addition to the PC last week, but with the significant advantage of being free for PS Plus subscribers. Rocket League was similarly launched on the PS4 as free for PS Plus subscribers and it helped the game quickly find an audience. It makes sense for “Fall Guys” to try a similar move, but the game’s early success on Steam shows that it could be more than just a freebie curiosity. It’ll be free on PS Plus through August.

Unfortunately, “Fall Guys” isn’t without a little launch drama, despite its success. It turns out a number of players have already figured out how to hack the game to get huge speed advantages.

Fortunately, the “Fall Guys” team said on Twitter that they’re aware of the issue and working to get it taken care of. Hopefully it won’t beg long for the sake of the two million that shelled out cash for the game on Steam.
