Fall Guys Players On PlayStation Must Redownload It To Continue Playing After May

gamespot.com:

Fall Guys is getting a new launcher on May 9 and will require a new download for all existing players to keep accessing the popular battle royale. In a new update from developer Media Molecule, the studio explained that since it switched publishers from Sony to its new owner Epic Games, the change in ownership necessitated the need for the game to switch launchers.

The good news is that all your costumes and progress will transfer over with you, and as an added bonus, you'll be able to pick up a free shark costume along the way. Yes, it looks quite jawsome.

The new Fall Guys PlayStation Launcher will be available on the PlayStation Store from April 5, at which point the old launcher icon will be greyed out. Accessing the game from the updated PlayStation icon will be the only way to play after May 9, and Mediatonic has encouraged its users to delete the old content so that some space can be freed up on the PS5.
