The Delay

Developers Mediatonic announced the game’s Nintendo Switch delay on their official Fall Guys website.

Fall Guys was originally planned to release on Nintendo Switch in Summer 2021.

Meidatonic cited “so many new opportunities” and adding new features (such as cross-play, the ability to play with other console players no matter the console) as reasons for the delay.

Here is a quote from their announcement.

You can read the entire message on the Fall Guy’s official website.

Mediatonic (the game’s developers) tweeted about Fall Guys’ delay on April 30th, 2021.
