In yesterday’s edition of the MinnMaxShow, former Game Informer employee Ben Hanson speaks withFall Guyssenior designer Joe Walsh about Mediatonic’s history and the success of their game. There are plenty of great details in this interview, such as talking aboutpotential brand collaborationsand what’s coming down the pipe. At 21:45, the topic of crossplay is brought up, and Joe Walsh says it’s “a big thing” the team is “definitely looking into” adding. “Fall Guysis about bringing people together to play wholesome games. It makes sense that crossplay is a part of that,” he adds.
Currently,Fall Guysis only available for the PlayStation 4 and PC, and the lack of crossplay means that the players on different platforms can’t play together. In addition, players will have to make two separate accounts with their own separate progression for each platform. While crossplay will be a big feature forFall Guys, there’s currently no release window for it so far. Mediatonic has been focused on handling the overwhelming amount of players that are playingFall Guys, and it’s no secret that theservers have been facing very heavy loads.
Even in the short timeFall Guyshas been out, there have already been several updates. Some of these updates have focused on rebalancing the chances of certain mini-games appearing, especially ones that are more or less popular. As for other potential features, Joe Walsh tossed around some ideas for limited time playlists as well as news modes for Season Two.
Fall Guysis currently available on PC via Steam and PlayStation 4, with more platforms on the way.
