Fall Guys x Doctor Who event announced with crossover skins

The eternal Time Lord and their most iconic villain are coming to Fall Guys this week in a new crossover event.

Just a week after Jodie Whittaker bowed out of Doctor Who with a spectacular regeneration, the show has announced a crossover event with Fall Guys, happening this week. The game is currently in the midst of a Halloween event, and what better way to follow that up than with a show notorious for making kids hide behind the sofa?

This isn’t the first time Doctor Who has had skins in high-profile video games, as the TARDIS and several unique adventures were available in Fortnite Creative back in March 2022. Fall Guys is also no stranger to crossovers, with a very high-profile Sonic the Hedgehog event earlier this year bringing a unique stage to the game.

No stages are coming this time around, but there are a bunch of great skins and other cosmetics. Shown off in the trailer were three skins. The first is based on the iconic golden Dalek design from the modern iteration of the show. The other two are both different versions of The Doctor themselves. Both Tom Baker’s fourth Doctor and Jodie Whittaker’s thirteenth Doctor will be available during this event.

On top of that, you can get some unique banners for your in-game nameplate. Similarly to the skins, you can get one featuring the Dalek’s golden shell, the fourth Doctor’s colorful scarf, and the thirteenth Doctor’s crystalline TARDIS console.

That may not be all, as a few leaks on Twitter are showing that a skin based on David Tennant’s tenth Doctor may be in this event as well. It wasn’t shown off in the trailer, so it may not be released for any number of reasons, but leaks have shown it exists in the game.

Either way the event, officially dubbed “TARDIS Treats” will be running from Tuesday, November 1 to Saturday, November 5. If you’re after these skins, then you’re going to want to get them during this window, as they may never return to the store once the event is over. There is no word yet on how much these will cost, or whether they will be unlockable through in-game challenges.

Fall Guys Season 2 release time: Every new map and when they launch

The second free-to-play season of Fall Guys is finally here. Things are getting cosmic as these new rounds launch you into orbit.

After going free-to-play earlier in the year, Fall Guys has seen a great resurgence in popularity, similar to the one it enjoyed when it first launched in 2020. Now the time has come for the first big season switch, and this time we’re heading into space. Fall Guys Season 2 has been officially revealed as Satellite Scramble and has a whole bunch of space-themed games ready to go.

We’ll tell you when this season is set to go live around the world, and all of the new maps currently revealed for the game.

UPDATE: Fall Guys-Sonic the Hedgehog crossover leak confirmed

Fall Guys datamine discovers images for a Sonic the Hedgehog-themed level called “Bean Hill Zone”.

UPDATE 08/09/22: Courtesy of a tweet sent from the official Fall Guys account, we now have confirmation that Sonic the Hedgehog and his friends are coming to Fall Guys.

The tweet reads “sonics back / with his friends” which we can only assume means that Sonic cosmetic items will be accompanied by cosmetics for his pals too. Tails and Knuckles are obvious choices, but there are plenty of Sonic characters that could be drawn from for inspiration.

The image also appears to hint that the “Bean Hill Zone” outlined below is very real.

Original story follows…

Fall Guys has been datamined by one of its players, where they discovered images for a Sonic the Hedgehog-themed level called “Bean Hill Zone”.

Mediatonic, developer of the knockout battle royale, has taken part in a number of gaming crossovers in the past. The game offers numerous skins of characters from outside the game as prizes for participation to help differentiate yourself from other players.

In June, it announced a collaboration with the blue blur offering players the chance to collect Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles skins to equip onto their beans. The new skins will be available from August, and so far no other Sonic-themed items have been officially announced.

Twitter user @FGPancake who is known to post Fall Guys leaks, has posted an image allegedly of an upcoming level based on Sonic the Hedgehog’s Green Hill Zone. The level titled Bean Hill Zone appears to be based on the game Hoopsie Daisy where players jump through hoops to earn points.

In this version, the hoops are Sonic’s iconic rings, and the level is littered with bumpers and blocks similar to those from the original game. The image shows beans dressed in costumes not from the Sonic collaboration. Despite this, it is likely that if the image is real, the level will be released at the same time as the Sonic-themed costumes in August.

Mediatonic recently announced the Crown Clash event in conjunction with Fortnite, Rocket League, and the Epic Games Store. Those who have Fall Guys and Fortnite and/or Rocket League can earn rewards from today (July 1.) in all three games. Those participating in Crown Clash will earn rewards once they complete 10, 20, 40, 70, and 100 rounds of Fall Guys. The promotion is available until July 11.

In other Sonic news, Sonic’s creator Yuji Naka recently confirmed the more than 20-year-old rumor that Michael Jackson wrote Sonic 3’s music, and developer from Headcannon, Simon Thomley, is “disappointed” with Sega over Sonic Origins bugs. We’ve also collected together a list of Sonic Origins cheats.

Fall Guys developer will address the notorious ‘auto-purchase’ bug

Mediatonic is honoring refund requests from players stuck with accidental purchases.

Back in 2020, Fall Guys quickly became an indie darling. Hype for the charming multiplayer bounce ’em up led to Epic Games buying developer Mediatonic and eventual free-to-play version.

However, since the launch of Fall Guys: Free For All last month, there’s been several glaring issues. Most notably, a glitch that automatically purchases items for real money that players don’t want. It’s been going on for more than a week, and fans are utterly furious — there was even a massive Reddit thread with dozens of examples from users experiencing this bug. Check out the video below to see the problem in action.

This new shop is a joke, was checking out some items and it literally auto purchased this faceplate I will never use. At least have a confirm button or something. Not even a cancel purchase button? My controller does not have any issues with stuck buttons or double pressing when not intended. from FallGuysGame

Worse yet, Reddit user ChunkyPeat shared an alleged email from Mediatonic claiming they would not receive a refund (thanks, VGC). Many other players apparently received similar replies, which obviously didn’t go over well with the community. Thankfully, Mediatonic is addressing the store’s technical hiccups.

“What is happening in the game is not intended and we are actively fixing it,” Mediatonic said in a statement to GLHF. “The customer service response was also not acceptable and we will offer a make good for all affected.”

On Friday, Mediatonic also publicly acknowledged the store glitches.

“We heard your feedback on accidental purchases, and we’re sorry,” Mediatonic said on Twitter. “We’re improving the store design to prevent this. All refund requests for cosmetics from [June 21, 2022] will be honored until we improve the store.”

We heard your feedback on accidental purchases – and we're sorry!

To make it right:

✨ We’re improving the store design to prevent this
✨ All refund requests for cosmetics from 21st June 2022 will be honoured until we improve the store
✨ We’re giving everyone GRANDIS 👇 pic.twitter.com/L7Bsz9nbg8

It’s a messy situation, but at least the studio is acknowledging that something went wrong.
