Adding crossplay and going free to play is awesome. I loved this game when I first launched and I hope these updates give it the popularity it deserves.
Now this puts a smile on my face! Glad this game is still being supported and being free and cross platform will hopefully help it. It fits right in with the Switch!
Good, good. F2P was the last detail this game needed to establish itself as the way-to-go party game. Hopefully it'll remain alive for a few more years to come, and all the deals from epic and all the cross-platform functionality should bring in enough revenue to keep adding more stuff more frequently.
This announcement trailer has totally made my day! It's been like almost 2 years since it was first announced to be released on the switch and I REALLY wanted to play it so bad, I was even fully prepared to pay full price, but now seeing that it's free!?! This has even made my week! I literally gasped in excitement when I saw the trailer on the channel and couldn't stop smiling!
I love how everyone who hasn't played the game yet thinks it's such a funny cute wholesome game, but it can be really frustrating😂 i have 800 hours in the game but i wouldn't even call it fun, it's just addictive
Same here, I’ve been wanting to play it since release but I don’t have a Playstation or a computer that can work Steam games well enough so I’m glad that it’s coming to Switch.
@@Amexy-mr6lw Yeah that is true. It's usually only for times when you actually play with others (if a first party game). I can still play Luigi's balloon world or upload my time on Sonic Mania since you don't actually play with others. So yeah you are correct.
Its so great that they decided to make it free to play it will rlly help it’s playerbase Personally I’m rlly happy with this announcement as I can finally play this game and its now free :D
This is a huge step for Fall Guys, not only that the game is releasing on more platforms like the Nintendo Switch, but also its FREE. I appreciate their work to try to make Fall Guys a fun experience for all players, I’m excited for what more they have to offer in order to make this game truly worth to play.
I got this back when it was insanely popular on Steam, only to find that my computer wasn't up to the task. Getting it free on Switch, and on my birthday, is awesome.
The fact that it's free makes people justify paying for in game purchases and that will make them more money than a one time purchase of a game. But then again who cares lol
And now that it’s not exclusive to Playstation or Steam anymore The playerbase can finally grow, part of the game’s downfall was because it was under a contract with Sony so only people with Steam accounts or Playstation 4/5s could play it. It’s finally going to give more people the chance to play it, I’m happy for them.
I’ve always had a passing interest to play Fall Guys, but not only is it FINALLY releasing on Switch - it’s also FREE?! Yeah, very likely I’m finally gonna give this game a shot now. Looking forward to it!
Hopefully the great seperate, i wouldn't like people too pro to ruin the game. Ranked it so no crazy people in noob match or griefer on griefer matches for max roasted
@@mechamicro There is skill based matchmaking in Fall guys and is based off your crown rank so newbies who have a low crown rank won't have high crown ranked players in their lobbies.
@@gamingsquid6725 no , it’s been two years since the game was announced on Switch and it will finally be released on all platforms and for free on June 21 ( it’s official there was an announcement )
It won't give the game a second life. The hype is over, and wanna know why? You know, when people really like something, they hype it! And when a lot of people play it, they eventually get bored... and the hype is over, Among us is also adding new content and the game didn't get hyped again
Nice to see Fall Guys going f2p & cross platform but sucks that Fall Guys is 30fps when docked. Nonetheless I'll still try it out on switch considering the PS4 XB1 versions are also running at 30fps.
When this game first came out, I had viewed a couple videos on it and I loved it. I was super upset to find out it wasn't on the Switch and wasn't free to play. I obviously got over it, but once it was announced to come out for Switch, I was ready to pay for it full price. I knew that even though it's been delayed a bit, I knew they would get around to it. And the fact that they made it free to play made me even more hyped. This is one of those games I'm not gonna get tired of. And even if it becomes dead, I'll still be playing. I'm gonna be grinding this game during summer break. Once again, thank you so much Nintendo!

@@allanmhanson i did play it just sake of curiosity when it had ps plus for a brief period time. Still I had several questions they decided go this route as early access for so long then goes "final" for free for all. so wierd

Fallguys will no longer be dead having so many companies support this game will make this community so much stronger as long as they make multiple/seasons/ updates and more and I guarantee you that it will happen now since Nintendo is taking over/helping them not sure which
Having the game go ftp is probably the best decision they have ever made, and I'm saying that as someone who already owns the game. Just a great business decision, and having it be cross-platform at the same time will only be great
Making it free to play will definitely expand the player base and make it way more accesible. I am so excited to finally play this game for the first time. Can't wait!!!!
I think the lack of console releases on release day, especially Switch, was what slowed it to a very less populated, but still surprisingly active community (or at least suprisingly active directors). At this point though, I thought releasing console releases would be too late to revive it at this point... until they mentioned it has become free to play. For a game relying on such huge numbers of players just trying out knockout courses for fun, I'm surprised they didn't start out with this business model. With the console release and becoming free to play now, I'll bet my 2 kidneys Fall Guys will have a spectacular comeback and will last for much longer, if not for quite a while.
I know people will spam "dead game" and even though it gets boring without updates, this game and Among Us are great games and are underrated, even when it blew up around the same time.
I hope this expands the player base by a ton because this game truly deserves the popularity. I haven’t played in a while and I miss it but my friends are bored of it
