Fall Guys (formerly known as Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout) was a free-to-play platform battle royale game developed by Mediatonic and published by Epic Games.
The game involved up to 60 players who controlled jellybean-like creatures and competed against each other in a playground called the Blunderdome in a series of randomly selected mini-games, such as obstacle courses or tag. Players were eliminated as the rounds progressed until, eventually, the last remaining player would be crowned the winner.
