Het vierde seizoen van Fall Guys is van start gegaan en daarom kunnen alle spelers nu update 1.8 downloaden. Deze update voegt alle seizoen 4 content toe en dat is nogal wat, zo bestaat het onder andere uit nieuwe levels en ook zijn er wat nieuwe modi toegevoegd.

Ontwikkelaar Mediatonic heeft nu een handig overzicht vrijgegeven van wat er allemaal nieuw is en dat brengt ons bij het onderstaande overzicht. De update is overigens niet alleen op seizoen 4 gericht, ook gebruikt de ontwikkelaar dit om wat problemen en issues te verhelpen. Die details eveneens hieronder.

Eerder gaf de ontwikkelaar al wat beelden kwijt en hoewel je het nu zelf kan ervaren, kan je terwijl je op de download wacht de footage hier even bekijken.

Season 4 Rounds

  • Skyline Stumble – Our new 60-player gauntlet showcases a mega assortment of fresh futuristic obstacles, including Low Gravity Zones, Forcefields and Lasers!
  • Hoverboard Heroes – Set sail for slimy seas as players dive and stumble over perilous obstacles. Ride out the chaos on the hoverboard ‘til the finish line or face elimination!
  • Basketfall – Team up to shoot some hoops in low gravity. This is the Fall Guys future, so prepare for a very silly number of basketballs…and triple hoops!
  • Short Circuit – A new type of racing Round drops beans on the grid and propels them through lap after lap of gravity-defying, obstacle-strewn mayhem!
  • Power Trip – Stumble onto the future-funk dancefloor and light up those tiles in a battery-powered battle for disco domination!
  • Big Shots – Ever wondered what it’d be like to stand on a See Saw while inflatable stars, magnets, gamepads, and miniature Saturns were shot at you? Well, now you’ll know.
  • Roll On – It’s Roll Out…but a race!? In this classic themed Round, 60 players dash to the finish line over a series of rambunctious rotating drums. Don’t fall off!

Character Improvements:

  • Sturdier Beans We’re improved our Fall Guys to be more sturdy when taking hits both from other players. No more ragdolling just because another bean brushed you in mid-air!
  • Fixed some ragdolling and excessive jumping issues in some rounds
  • Fixed errors related to ledge-climbing in some levels like Wall Guys
  • Increased physics performance for distant players, leading to an overall smoother experience

Post elimination flow: you can now quit at any time after being eliminated, no more waiting for the next round to load

Other fixes and improvements:

  • Fall Mountain will now spawn players in a single line so no one is at a disadvantage
  • Improved victory moment and flow at the end of episode
  • Reduced network traffic usage which should alleviate some of the latency-related issues
  • Improved character behaviour when carrying objects around
  • Improved hoops scoring reliability
  • Fixed visual post-processing issues in certain cases like spectating or rotating the camera at some angles
