But it’s being delisted from Steam
Mediatonic’s bean-themed party royaleFall Guyswill go free-to-play on June 21st, the studio announced last night. However, this will also coincide with the game being delisted from Steam. From that point on, Fall Guys will be exclusive to the Epic Games Store, although it will still remain playable for existing owners on Steam without them having to move to Epic’s launcher. The news came as part of Mediatonic’s announcement that Fall Guys is coming to Nintendo Switch and Xbox next month with full cross-play and cross-progression support, alongside its current homes on PC and PlayStation.
It’s not that surprising to see Fall Guys move to the Epic Games Store, asEpic acquired Mediatonicin March last year. Indeed, compulsory sign-in with an Epic Games account was introduced to Fall Guys in season six, even for people playing on Steam. Existing Steam owners needn’t worry about getting left behind after it becomes delisted, though:
“Steam players who already have a copy of Fall Guys will continue to receive all the usual updates (such as new seasons, patches and fresh features) that you’d expect,” say Mediatonic.
Matt thought the game was fun but not for long in hisFall Guys review. “It stopped surprising me. That’s the core of it. When I play now I do still find myself sat there with an idle smile, but it’s like flicking popcorn chicken into my mouth rather than, I don’t know, devouring a wasabi cheesecake.”
Fall Guys is still available onSteamuntil June 21st and costs £16/$20/€20. The full details of what changes are coming to Fall Guys can be readhere.
