Fall Guys is Helping Players Finish Their Season 1 Battle Pass and Hit Rank 40

Now that theFall Guys 2Release Date has been revealed, the developers at Mediatonic are hoping to build excitement heading into that all-important launch. Obviously, showing off thenew Season 2 tracks and skinshas been a solid way of doing that, but the devs also want to get players back as early as possible.

In an effort to entice players back toFall Guys, Mediatonic has announced that there will be a Double Fame period from now until the Season 2 launch on October 8th. Any Fame that players earn during theirFall Guysmatches will contribute towards their Season 1 Battle Pass and help them unlock the various goodies that are included with it.

It’s important to point out that Fame is not the same as Kudos inFall Guys. Kudos is the purple currency that is used to purchase most of the skins from the Fall Guys store. Players earn a specific amount of Kudos based on their performance in the Episode, and if theywin all rounds, they earn a Crown, which is another type of currency. Crowns are the goal inFall Guys, but Kudos can also help with accumulating new looks for a player’s character.

Alongside the Kudos and the potential Crown, players will earn a certain amount of Fame for eachFall GuysEpisode they complete. Fame rewards can vary much like Kudos and are also influenced by the player’s performance in the rounds. Fame is useful for no other reason than completing theBattle Pass included with eachFall Guysseason, so for those that have already hit rank 40, this Double Fame period is unlikely to do anything for them.

However, much like aDouble XP weekend inCall of Duty, the point of something like Double Fame is to encourage lapsed players to come back at a time when a game needs to build hype. In the case ofFall Guys, Mediatonic wants to get players back onto the courses so that they will be more interested in firing up the game when Season 2 comes around.

Double Fame will also help players unlock whatever skins, emotes, and cosmetics they may be missing from the Battle Pass, which could be a huge draw for completionists. Not to mention, there is aFall GuysPs4 Trophyfor hitting rank 40 on the Battle Pass for any season, so this Double Fame period will make that goal a lot easier.
