Fall Guys, the widely played platforming battle royale game, has revealed its first Season 2 stage: Knight Fever. Since Fall Guys's release this August, the game has exploded in popularity with players simultaneously falling in love with the cute, bean-shaped character models and climbing over a mountain of bean-shaped opponents to achieve victory.
Though Fall Guys hinted at new gameplay mechanics in the Season 2 stages, including variants of stages that would require solo players to sometimes work together to progress to the finish line.
According to swinging spiked logs and holes to fall through, and drawbridges unpredictably opening and closing before one can reach the finish line.
Given that many players have pretty much mastered many of the game-opening Season 1 mini-games, Knight Fever is intended to be something of a "skill check" to test the abilities of players who would otherwise breeze through the first-round clamor with relative ease. Though no one in the player base will be able to try this stage until later this week, Knight Fever does indeed appear to be uniquely challenging, while also maintaining a familiar and recognizable format.
Fall Guys has no doubt captured the attention of millions of players, and so the introduction of this new season is a great opportunity to not only bring more players into the fold, but also showcase the inventiveness and versatility of Mediatonic's development team. Keep an eye out, as the Fall Guys Season 2 update should drop on October 8.
Fall Guys is available on PlayStation 4 and PC.
