The multiplayer game Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is a big hit. However, cheaters have found ways to spoil the fun for others. Hopefully, that won’t last long.
What is the current situation in Fall Guys? The multiplayer game from Mediatonic and Devolver Digital is enjoyed by many players. According to Steamcharts, a peak of 123,017 players are playing on PC via Steam. The developers themselves have announced that the title has sold over 2 million copies on Valve’s platform. Fall Guys is an absolute hit.
And yet, discontent is currently growing. Because there are increasing reports of cheaters ruining the gaming experience for others.
How is cheating done in Fall Guys? Most are apparently using speed hacks, as can be seen in videos. This means that players can suddenly run extremely fast.
So when a round starts and players try to reach the finish line as quickly as possible, the cheaters hit the “Turbo” and race past the others directly to the finish.
As only a limited number of players advance each round, these cheaters take away the well-deserved spots from the honest participants through cheating. After all, the point of Fall Guys is to have fun during the races. What happens with the obstacles, the unpredictable events, contributes much more to the fun of the game than merely winning.
Furthermore, there are now reports of cheaters who can activate a kind of flight mode. They simply float over the obstacles that honest players struggle with and reach the finish line quickly and easily.
What do the developers think about the situation? The team at Mediatonic is aware that cheaters are present in Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout. They thank players for reporting the cheaters and are currently working on a solution. What this will look like is still unknown.
However, a solution is expected to be ready soon, as the developers agree with players that cheating takes away the fun for honest players.
What can you do against cheaters? Currently, the only option is for you to contact the developers via the official Discord channel and report cheaters this way. You currently cannot make a report directly from the game.
It is currently unclear whether a reporting feature will be added. However, it would certainly be useful. Also, what anti-cheat measures are being implemented in Fall Guys is not known.
