Fans are divided over the evolution of Fall Guys, with some claiming the game has worsened over time since its 2020 launch. A vocal group of players argues recent updates negatively impacted the gameplay experience, while others celebrate the constant evolution of the game's content.

The developers have since added features like:

  • Squads, Duos, Trios

  • Live events, Crown Shards

  • A Player Report System

  • Bots for beginners
