In a surprise announcement, Marvel and Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout debuted a trailer showcasing a new crossover with Guardians of the Galaxy. The zany party title has a long-running reputation for collaborating with high-profile properties as characters of all shapes and sizes are transformed into the game's iconic beans. Initially announced at E3 2019 and later released on August 4, 2020, Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout was an immediate hit with players of all ages.
Fall Guys was originally released by Tonic Games Group, but the company was acquired by Epic Games in 2021. Since then, the title has been pulled into more and more collaborations with other games, like Fortnite, developed by Epic. In fact, there was a period of time in September 2024 when Fortnite players could play Fall Guys in a battle royale match. In February 2024, Disney bought a $1.5 billion stake in Epic Games with the intent of introducing larger crossovers that include Marvel, Disney, Pixar, Avatar, and more.
It's been rumored that Assassin's Creed Invictus will be a Fall Guys-like spinoff, and the franchise's gameplay might actually be a good fit for that.
Marvel and Fall Guys were happy to surprise...
