Fall Guys receives a patch and goes to version 1.02 with, as a result, a new level and various changes.
Tomorrow, Wednesday August 12, Fall Guys will go to 1.02. This first update will notably add a new level. This one is called Jump Showdown, as we say across the Channel. It had already appeared in the beta and will officially make its debut with this update.
This is a variant of the Club des Sauts. We find in this level of Fall Guys the double turnstile, except that pieces of the ground regularly collapses. In other words, all the little guys will end up in the same small space. And you’ll fall because your neighbor, unlike you, messed up his jump miserably. It is unfair. Fall Guys is unfair.

With this update, Fall Guys also decreases the number of times the level Tail Catcher appears during the final. It also aims to improve the stability of the title or the ease of catching the crown in Mountain fall.
In the future, other patches will be deployed by the Fall Guys teams. Mediatonic, the development studio, plans to add additional levels, as well as new costumes and unspecified features at this time.
With the (future) addition of Jump Shodown, Fall Guys will offer a total of 25 levels. On paper, it seems like a lot, but once in play, we still often come across the same ones. Some events are also quite close; the new Jump Shodown and the Jump Club are proof of this.
Fall Guys is THE big hit of the last few weeks. This unofficial adaptation of Takeshi’s Castle has been available since August 4, only on PC and PlayStation 4. On the Sony console, it is even directly offered to all PlayStation Plus subscribers. It is not known how many players have recovered it through this service. However, we know that on Steam, there are more than 2 million sales. It is absolutely colossal; Fall Guys has therefore generated more than 28 million euros in revenue for its developer.
It is logically one of the most played titles on Steam. At the time of this writing, Fall Guys is neck and neck with GTA V. It remains to be seen if he will be anything but a shooting star. There are many games that perform a cannon boot before suddenly disappearing. While Mediatonic continues to regularly release updates for Fall Guys, it’s hard to see what could prevent him from staying on his throne for quite a while.
