Key Takeaways

  • Fall Guys announced a crossover with Guardians of the Galaxy, offering new skins.
  • Fall Guys has seen collaborations with various franchises.
  • The crossover for Fall Guys begins on November 14.

As a longtime gamer who remembers playing Pong at the local arcade, I must say that the collaboration between Fall Guys and Guardians of the Galaxy has me more excited than a kid on Christmas morning! With my gaming history spanning decades, I’ve seen countless crossovers but this one takes the cake (or should I say bean?). The fact that I can now run around as Rocket Raccoon or Groot in Fall Guys is just too cool for words.

In an unexpected reveal, Marvel unveiled a trailer for a collaboration between them and the popular game “Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout”, featuring characters from “Guardians of the Galaxy”. Known for its quirky multiplayer style, “Fall Guys” often partners with well-known franchises, transforming various characters into the game’s recognizable jellybean-like entities. Originally announced at E3 2019 and launched on August 4, 2020, the game quickly became a favorite among players of all ages.

Back when I first discovered Fall Guys, it was developed by Tonic Games Group. However, in 2021, the game’s world expanded as Epic Games took over, leading to an increase in collaborations with other games like Fortnite, which is also under Epic’s wing. During September 2024, a unique moment occurred where Fortnite players were able to engage in a battle royale match with Fall Guys!

Delighted fans received news that Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy would join forces with Fall Guys on November 14, 2024. Similar to the previous collaboration with Star Wars, gamers can obtain new costumes and means to customize their characters, known as beans. Fans of Guardians of the Galaxy will now be able to roam around as Star-Lord, Gamora, Rocket Raccoon, and Groot. Instead of their typical comic book attire, these iconic Guardians seem to be modeled after their film versions.

Fall Guys Continues Marvel Crossovers With Guardians of the Galaxy

It’s not surprising that Fall Guys has teamed up with Marvel again, and chances are we’ll see more of this in the future. Back in 2024, Spider-Man enthusiasts enjoyed a crossover featuring Peter Parker, Miles Morales, and Gwen Stacy dressed in their distinctive suits. As Epic Games’ partnership with Disney strengthens, such collaborations have become increasingly common.

It seems that Epic Games and Disney have a clever approach when teaming up in their top-tier games. They’ve managed to leverage each other’s strengths exceptionally well, merging iconic universes together for the first time ever. This collaboration allows players to traverse worlds inhabited by characters from both Encanto and The Avengers, a feat that only a handful of games can claim. Furthermore, Epic Games has ensured seamless crossplay and cross-progression across titles such as Fortnite and Fall Guys. These collaborations undoubtedly benefit both the company and the players alike.
