Fall Guys ‘Isn’t Changing’ after Epic Games Acquisition, says Tonic Games

Epic Games (EG) had been riding high for a while. Now, the company has acquired the studio behind the massive 2020 hit, Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout on PC and PS4.

As officially announced by Epic Games, the Tonic Games Group will be joining the EG family. Tonic Games Group co-founder and CEO Dave Bailey says:

“At Tonic Games Group we often say that ‘everyone deserves a game that feels like it was made for them.’ With Epic, we feel like we have found a home that was made for us. They share our mission to build and support games that have a positive impact, empower others and stand the test of time and we couldn’t be more excited to be joining forces with their team.”

While some fans are worrying that this merger will lead to some significant changes to Fall Guys (FG), that doesn’t seem to be the case. Mediatonic promises that the ‘gameplay isn’t changing’ and that the mission is still to bring FG to ‘as many players as possible. While the game could be a hit for the PlayStation and PC now, the developers are still working on a port that will be releasing soon on the Nintendo Switch and Xbox family.

With Epic Games pulling off some great brand synergy with Fortnite, it was only a matter of time before they noticed another game pull off the same thing with Fall Guys. Epic Games has been known to pull off some big moves within, recently bringing Kingdom Hearts to the PC on their own store.

While we should still expect some new features coming to FG, this team-up with Epic will hopefully lead to some more out-of-the-box ideas.
