Here’s what you need to know, with top tricks and tactics straight from the team to help you tackle our latest Rounds and grab those EZ quals.
Button Bashers – It’s cool to duel
For the first time ever, Fall Guys players will face off 1v1 in a quick-fire mini arena bout! Button Bashers separates brave beans into pairs for a rapid reaction face-off, with the goal of reaching lit buttons first to earn points while navigating fiendish obstacle effects. Most points when the clock runs out claim victory, with nerve-wracking overtime in the case of a draw…
As a timed round, you’ll be eager to wrack up those points as quickly as possible, but knowing when to let points go can be just as important for sealing qualification.
The Slimescraper – Tumble to the top
This spiritual successor to Slime Climb sows chaos across multiple floors in a dash to the summit! On your trip to the top, you’ll encounter a dizzying array of obstacles, from Conveyer Belts to Laser Swings, to Bounce Cubes and Turntables. Plus, Pinball Flippers galore await beans as a final challenge to outrun the slime. So, what’s the deal?
“It’s easier said than done when the slime’s hot on your heels, but a lot of the obstacles can be overcome with a bit of patience,” muses Max Boyle (Game Designer). “When it comes to sections with Force Fields and Punching Gloves, keep an eye out for when they activate and how they cycle. Taking a moment to time your dash for the maximum window of opportunity is way safer than rushing!”
Taking your time is all well and good, but what about when you’re teetering on the edge? Abbie Williams, junior community manager.
Custom Lobbies – The host with the most
Fall Guys Season 4.5 also sees the release of Custom Lobbies, enabling any player to host their own invitation-only Fall Guys match-up! Unique codes can be shared with the beans of your choice, with a wide array of Shows to dive into.
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout
Custom Lobbies with as few as four participants can now take on bountiful Shows from the main roster, right up to a full 60 players if you happen to be particularly popular (lucky you!) We’re super excited about Custom Lobbies and will be keeping a keen eye on community feedback to help with improvements and making this as fun as absolutely possible.
