Fall Guys, which has recently come to the fore with server problems, is breaking a record in itself with the number of players. The production managed to reach 20 million players, just two days after it became free to play on the Epic Games Store. As a matter of fact, the servers, who could not stand to receive such intense attention when it first came out, started to cause problems.
Fall Guys players reached 20 million in 2 days
The Fall Guys official Twitter account announced yesterday that they have reached 20 million players after being free to play. As a matter of fact, while the number of Fall Guys players has increased so much, server problems have started to arise again, just like the period of August 2020, when the game was first released. No matter how hard Mediatonic tried, players struggled to get into matches when the game was F2P. Here we also see that the studio is not prepared for the popularity of the game.
The game was the PlayStation Plus free game in its first month of release, making it the most downloaded PS Plus game of all time. We don’t have a number of how many people played the game in August 2020, but now 20 million players have attacked the Fall Guys servers.
With the purchase of Mediatonic by Epic Games, we can say that the production, which has moved from Steam to the Epic Games Store, follows the path of Rocket League. If you remember, the number of Rocket League players also tripled when it was free to play on the Epic Games Store. Fall Guys also gets its share of this popularity, but unfortunately its servers are not yet ready to welcome so many people. Of course, after Epic Games is behind it, these problems will definitely be solved in the future.
