Fall Guys WWE Crossover Features The Undertaker and More
After player counts began to dwindle in 2021, the wacky Wipeout-inspired battle royale Fall Guys got a new lease on life as a free-to-play title. Now available on Xbox consoles as well as the Nintendo Switch, there’s arguably never been a better time to get in on the action. The caveat of this change seems to have been an increased reliance on cosmetic microtransactions, the recently-announced WWE tie-in skins being the latest high-profile optional purchases to appear in the Fall Guys in-game storefront.
A cross-promotion with the WWE’s annual Summerslam event, cutesy skins depicting professional wrestling stars Asuka, Xavier Woods, and The Undertaker will be available for Fall Guys players to purchase from July 28 to August 1. Special nameplates and emotes will also be available to pick up for a limited time. It’s an interesting move from a marketing perspective;Fall Guys is no stranger to these sorts of promotions, though it’s almost always been done with other video game franchises such as Bugsnax and Astro’s Playroom.
Fall Guys Addressing Accidental In-Game Purchases, Refunding For All Requests Made
The Summerslam tie-in will be coming hot on the heels of the new Fall Guys Clan of Yeetus event which will see classicminigames remixed with a bunch of added obstacles. While this may confuse newcomers, it makes for an excellent draw for returning players who haven’t picked up the game in quite some time. There’s also a new battle pass accompanying what the developer has dubbed the first season of the game’s new “Free For All” phase, so even players who aren’t particularly interested in getting their hands on WWE cosmetics will have a reason to log in.
These aren’t the only updates that have Fall Guys fans interested.
