Ever the hype-man, Keighley subsequently explains in a reply that he’s seen the trailer already and fans of the game won’t be disappointed.
The news will be a huge boon for Fall Guy’s enormous player base, which numbered 2 million over on Steam after a week on the market. That doesn’t include a large number of PS Plus subscribers who scooped up the game up as a freebie this month.
For Twinfinite’s recent review of Fall Guys, we scored it 3/5 and concluded:
“Still, there is a very promising kernel at the core of Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout. With some more game mode variety, some basic controller and accessibility options, and a stable player base, I could see it being a great alternative to other live-service games. It just isn’t quite there yet.”
