Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout Reviews
Fall Guys is the Battle Royale game for those who don't like Battle Royale games. This is enjoyment and positivity in its purest form with a long list of events that are primed to put a smile across your face, no matter whether you're playing alone or with friends. Your family will catch you chuckling, your buddies won't forget that time you cried with laughter, and you'll do it all over again because there's nothing else like it. Fall Guys is just the best.
Fall Guys is one of the best online party games of the generation, offering a hilarious and intense battle royale with a ridiculous amount of customisation. A speedy pace and a substantial amount of different modes at launch mean that the game is always fresh and exciting. Even the Battle Pass and store are some of the fairest and less money-grabbing I have seen. Fall Guys is a must-play.
Simply put, Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is brilliant.
On one hand I really like a lot of what Fall Guys has to offer. It's bright, colorful, zany, and it controls well, but some of the round types are simply obnoxious and the RNG makes each game a crapshoot.
Fall Guys' brand of chaotic fun is still great all of these years later, and the free-to-play Switch release is no different, assuming you can ignore your opponents' choppy frame rate. While there are some disappointing elements linked to cross-progression, those ultimately won't matter if this is your first time entering the Blunderdome. Some moments of lag and frame rate quirks aside, the Switch version offers a solid way to play if you're looking for some barmy 60-bean battling and the barrier to entry has never been lower.
Fall Guys with its fun mini-games is a guarantee for a good mood, but it lacks variety in the long run.

Fall Guys is a family-friendly battle royale and a game of the year contender
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is one of the funniest experiences of the year. Despite the connection errors and simple current state, the game has the potential to be as popular as other titles in the battle royale genre.

If Fall Guys can keep up its current momentum with a steady stream of skins and minigames, I see no reason why it can't be one of the top contenders in the battle royale genre. It's got the charm, the fun gameplay, and the multiplayer communituy focus that's as fun to watch as it is to play, and these beans don't seem to be slowing down anytime soon.
Fall Guys' ingenious game show royale formula is a recipe for success, and its gameplay is full-fat unadulterated fun.
Even when Fall Guys is working perfectly as intended, its appeal is limited.
Fall Guys is an absolute delight. It feels like a natural evolution of the battle royale genre that abandons the expectation of violence and exchanges it for a bright, colourful multiplayer experience that sinks its hooks in and refuses to let go.
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is a joy to play, fun for all levels of video game players, and will only get better from here.
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is worth playing for multiple reasons. It's fast-paced, silly, and fun. It's a unique take on the battle royale formula. It's great in short bursts or longer play sessions. This is just a really entertaining online multiplayer game, and it's some of the most fun you'll have with a game this summer.
There is a very promising kernel at the core of Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout. With some more game mode variety, some basic controller and accessibility options, and a stable player base, I could see it being a great alternative to other live-service games. It just isn’t quite there yet.
Fall Guys : Ultimate Knockout is a grotesque battle royale dressed as a party-game, which gives hopes to 60 poor candidates to triumph over all the others every five minutes or so. Fun, colorful and justly unfair, Mediatonic's game just need to last the distance with new stages and a better interface with its second season.

If you can overcome these flaws, then you will have a fun, frantic game. Aim for the crown and don't get eliminated!
Fall Guys is a delightful new take on the Battle Royale format. It has its irritating moments, but overall is a game almost anyone should try.
When it works, Fall Guys is a remarkably fun experience. It’s a rich and satisfying romp that silly yet rewarding. It’s the exact kind of game we needed right now, a perfectly joyous distraction from a lot of the shittyness around us. Fall Guys has the structure of a delightful game with a lot of longevity. All it needs now is continued support and smart updates to propel it even further forward.
