Mediatonic’s Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout has been an unprecedented success, selling over two million copies on Steam in its first week. A new update is going live today and along with various fixes, it also adds a new level. It’s Jump Showdown, which was quite popular in the beta.
Jump Showdown will be added to the rotation of final stages, offering another unique challenge when going for the crown. Mediatonic has also promised additional levels “coming soon” with new costumes and features. As for fixes, the update lowers the weighting for Royal Fumble to provide more variation in the final round.
Matchmaking and server errors have “improved messaging” which should let you know why issues are taking place. Check out the rest of the patch notes in the tweets below. Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is currently available for PC and PS4 but the developer is open to bringing it to other platforms in the future.
We're about to drop a new level into rotation!!! Jump Showdown – A fan-favourite from the beta!
We'll be adding it in our first update TOMORROW!
