Fall Guyshas been unstoppable since it launched on PC and PS4 a few weeks back, and a recent tweet from PlayStation UK confirms just how huge the game has become. According to the tweet,Fall Guyshas officially become the most downloaded PlayStation Plus game of all time.
This is quite the feat, asRocket Leaguealso saw a PlayStation Plus launch and seemed to take the world by storm. This game is on another level, however, asFall Guys’8 million+ player count on PlayStation 4alone indicates. Launching free for Plus was a brilliant move on the part of Mediatonic and Sony, as it has allowed a far larger audience to get their hands onFall Guys.

PlayStation Plus members can still downloadFall Guysfor another week. When it leaves the service,Fall Guyswill likely still see some solid sales from those who missed out on it during its time on Plus. However, with so many already having the game, Mediatonic can expect a hefty amount of Kudos (the in-game currency) to be purchased. The developer has promised that plenty of new skins will be coming toFall Guysin the future, so Kudos will likely be bought plenty by fans eager to dress up their bean in the coolest items. Mediatonic may also charge for the upcoming Season 2 Battle Pass, and in a perfect world, the pass would include some of theamazing Pokemon skin conceptsthat have been shown forFall Guys.
Regardless,Fall Guysbecoming the most downloaded PlayStation Plus game ever is an incredible feat. Not only wasRocket Leagueavailable for free on the service, but games likeShadow of the ColossusandDestiny 2were PS Plus games as well. BothCall of Duty: Black Ops 3andCall of Duty: Modern Warfare Remasteredwere also on Plus, the latter of which seems to be the previous record holder. Beating out massive AAA titles likeCall of Dutyis something Mediatonic likely never even dreamed of, but the game’s mind-blowing success truly is well-deserved.
It will be interesting to see how the game performs if the recent rumor of aNintendo Switch port ofFall Guyscomes to fruition. The game will not have a free launch on the Switch platform, though that has not stopped the PC version of the game from selling tremendously. While it may not break any sales records there, the game is a perfect fit for the Switch’s mobile gameplay and Mediatonic would certainly be happy to further grow theFall Guyscommunity. If an Xbox version of the game will ever come remains unclear.
Players just cannot seem to stop playing with theoverly large beans ofFall Guys, and with more content on the way, that is unlikely to change. The most adorable battle royale on the market is not going anywhere anytime soon, as its record-breaking PlayStation Plus performance confirms the game will likely have legs for a long time.
Fall Guysis now available on PC and PlayStation 4.
