Fall Guys is throwing it back to school fetes with a cute jelly bean guessing competition taking place right in the heart of Melbourne this June. The event celebrates the launch of the rebooted ‘season one’ of Fall Guys, marking the beginning of the game’s life as a free-to-play title on all consoles.
The change will see the game incorporate new rounds and obstacles alongside a snazzy Season Pass that includes hundreds of costumes, emotes and celebrations. This pass is extremely optional, with the first ‘season one’ instalment being made available to all players who’ve already purchased Fall Guys prior to its free-to-play transition.
