The Fall Guys team has announced the first update for the game, which will be rolling out later today.
Jump Showdown is a new final round minigame that would be familiar to those that played the beta on PC. It’s a variation of Jump Club that sees the same two pillars rotating around a circle, with segments falling out beneath you.
With the addition of this final round mode, Royal Rumble, which is the minigame where the person left with a tail wins, will be served less. Many people feel that this is the worst final round mini game as there’s still some glitches with the tail grabbing system.
? We're about to drop a new level into rotation!!! ?
