Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout

Review

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is a platform battle royale game developed by Mediatonic and published by Devolver Digital. It was released for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 4 on 4 August 2020. The game is planned for release on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.

Gameplay

In Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout, players control jelly bean-like creatures and compete against each other in a series of challenges, such as obstacle courses or tag. Many different courses have been added since the game was first released; the minority are team-based, while many require not falling into slime on a spinning, floating platform with obstacles designed to knock players in and waiting for a specified number of others to be eliminated, but most are obstacle courses that involve players racing to get to the finish line as soon as possible, lest they are eliminated—starting at 40, there is a limited number of players that can qualify, and with each round as the game progresses, the number lowers, eventually getting down to one, the player who is crowned the winner.

Graphics

The game draws inspiration from game shows like Takeshi's Castle, It's a Knockout, Wipeout, and playground games like tag and British Bulldog. The game has seasonal changes, which adds more challenges and changes the game's theme. The current and fourth season, named "Fall Guys 4041", is future-themed with a retro style. The graphics in Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout are cartoon-like, with bright colours and simple shapes. There are many different environments that have been added since the game was first released, such as in the "Fall Guys 4041" season being future-themed with a retro style.

Information about replayability

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is replayable in a way where the player can play through a course again after they have completed it.

Conclusion

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is a fun platform battle royale game that involves players completing different challenges. However, the game can become stale after prolonged periods of time. The game has a lot of replayability and is visually appealing. The game is also available on a variety of platforms and the game is fun. The game is not the cheapest game and there are a lot of advertisements. The game can also have a lot of bugs. The game is not for players who don't like fast-paced games.
