Fall Guys ist jetzt live und auf Switch spielbar

Herbst Jungs‘ long-awaiting Switch release has finally landed! The popular online multiplayer game has launched its free-to-play model, complete with crossplay and cross-progression, heute!

Jahreszeit 1 is free to download now for all players, and anyone who has already bought the game will be entitled to the free Legacy Pack. Aber sonst, there are a few new rounds and new obstacles that will be dropping for the first time.

Here’s everything that’s coming to the new release, along with fixes, straight from the official website:

NEW ROUNDS AND OBSTACLES!

Free for All features 7 new Rounds at launch, zzgl. 5 brand new obstacles!

– HEX-A-RING: You’ve heard of Hex-a-Gone, but have you ever tried jumping from tile to tile while the whole floor rotates? That definitely sounds challenging, but you look like you’re up for a challenge!
– VOLLEYFALL: Volleyfall asks, who can knock the ball into the other side of the court without the other players hitting it back into yours? Whoever gets the ball to touch the floor of the other player, Gewinnt!
– SPEED CIRCUIT: Speed Circuit brings a new level of chaos and momentum to Fall Guys! Navigate through the obstacles in your way and run three laps around the circuit without being flung into the misty slime.
– TRACK ATTACK: This truly is a gauntlet to test your Fall Guys skills. With obstacles like speed arches, jump ropes and bouncy floors, you’re bound to learn a thing or two. For both experienced and new players, there are so many ways to get to the finish line in this iconic trial of speed and agility.
– BOUNCE PARTY: We all love bouncy castles, but what’s it like to traverse the Blunderdome on one? The new material used in Bounce Party makes the floor very bouncy. One jump and you’re going flying! The bouncy floor can be your friend, or your foe while you bounce through hoops to score points.
– THE SWIVELLER: In this revolving Round, players spawn on a rotating ring and must jump over the oncoming jump ropes to avoid falling into the Slime! Get your jump timing wrong and you’ll be picking pink slime out of your ears for weeks!
– BLAST BALL: Last but definitely not least, welcoming Blast Ball. Players spawn on a platform in the Fall Guys arena, with parts of that platform collapsing over time. Pick up Blast Balls and throw them to knock each other into the slime!

PLUS! We’ve got one extra-special secret new Round that we’re launching later this season, but you’ll find out more about that soon!
