The midseason 3.5 update for Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout went live today. It’s bringing a new level, several variations of existing levels, previously released costumes coming to the regular store, and bug fixes.
Players can experience over 40 variations of already-known levels that make the game more challenging. The new level is called Snowball Survival, where you get thrown into a Hex-A-Gone style icy bowl filled with giant snowballs.
A feature called the Fall Feed was also added for the new shows and costumes set to go live over the coming weeks. Meadiatonic hasn’t provided any details of what’s to come yet but they’ll likely be new Round playlists.
A new costume DLC pack was announced with the update called Sugar Plum, but it’s not available on Steam yet at time of writing. It has the Regal Nutcracker, Rainbow Fairy, and Ballerina costumes.
The bug fixes are focused on performance enhancements, fixing crashes, and some issues on the Ice Climb and Hex-A-Gone rounds.
