Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout’s fusion of TV show obstacle course mayhem with a ‘battle royale’ quest for the crown has been delighting players, and today’s mid-season update adds a whole new layer of colorful chaos, full of fiendish takes on familiar rounds and some surprising twists to keep those jelly beans on their toes.
But that’s not all – Mediatonic has also implemented Epic’s Easy Anti-Cheat in order to combat players using tools that hook into the game to apply hacks to our unsuspecting Fall Guys. Easy Anti-Cheat is used by the best in the business and will mean our jelly beans receive the very best protection from the bad eggs seeking to exploit them.
Round variations – expect the unexpected: Players will quickly realize that all is not what it seems in The Blunderdome. Familiar favorites will have to be tackled in all new ways, with the addition of dozens of obstacles, dizzyingly random rotations and, of course, plenty of tumbling fruit. And what’s more, players will have no idea when these changes will occur – no bean’s dignity shall be spared.
Better, faster, smoother, stumbles: The Mediatonic team has been implementing hot-fixes and tweaks to improve the Fall Guys experience since day one, and today’s major mid-season patch continues this quest. Players can expect changes to enhance server stability, nifty VFX improvements and a whole lot more to make Fall Guys just that little bit smoother.
And another thing…There have been rumblings across the community about a certain large and rather aggressive hammer obstacle roaming the rounds, apparently intent on causing further mayhem for the Fall Guys. Details are sparse, but one thing we do know is that their name is Big Yeetus and they’re a-coming.
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is out now on PlayStation 4 and PC via Steam. Stumble over to fallguys.com, join our Discord and follow @FallGuysGame for regular updates and continue your inevitable failure in front of the whole world.
Following the whirlwind of release information that Xbox dropped on the world last week following agonising months of waiting for fans, the moment those fans will be able to pre-order either the Xbox Series X and S New Generation consoles is fast approaching on September 22nd.
Today, Xbox UK Marketing Lead, Samuel Bateman, has confirmed the time at which the big retailers will begin to open and take customer pre-orders will be 8am in the UK:
Pre-orders for Xbox Series X | S go live on the 22nd September at 8AM from the following UK retailers:
🖥️Microsoft Store 📦Amazon 🎮GAME 🅰️Argos 🍛Currys PC World 🧸Smyths Toys 👪John Lewis & Partners 🟩AO .com 💜Very .co.uk pic.twitter.com/W0zf1bSVda
Samuel Bateman went on to confirm that customers who place their pre-order with the Microsoft store can expect full payment to be taken the day before the order will be dispatched. For the other retailers I would advise keeping an eye on their websites leading into the 22nd as they might confirm whether a deposit will be required or full payment perhaps to secure your pre-order of the Xbox Series X or S.
As for Xbox All Access, the subscription based model which enables monthly payments to pay off the Xbox Series X or Series S, Samuel Bateman offered further confirmation that currently for the UK, only GAME and Smyth Toys will offer this service:
Some frequent Q&A
🇬🇧8AM *BST* 💵If you purchase from Microsoft Store UK, payment is taken one day before dispatch of the console 💳Xbox All Access is only available via GAME and Smyths Toys for now 🏠Not *all* retailers are listed here. But these are the major ones
It will be likely that other Xbox regions will match this 8am UK time in their own regions which would make it midnight in some regions in the US but more information will no doubt follow in the days leading till the 22nd.

To celebrate the release of The King of Staten Island on DVD and Blu-ray, we are offering you the change to win a copy on Blu-ray.
Pete Davidson is THE KING OF STATEN ISLAND in the moving, comedic event of the year inspired by his own true-life story, available to own for the first time on Digital 31 August 2020 and Blu-ray™ and DVD on 14 September 2020 from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. Renowned director Judd Apatow (Trainwreck, Knocked Up, The 40-Year-Old Virgin) directs Davidson in this emotional, yet comedic story about love, loss and laughter on Staten Island. THE KING OF STATEN ISLAND comes home with over two hours of never-before-seen bonus content exclusive to Blu-ray.
Scott (Davidson) has been a case of arrested development ever since his firefighter father died when he was seven. He’s now reached his mid-20s having achieved little, chasing a dream of becoming a tattoo artist that seems far out of reach. As his ambitious younger sister (Maude Apatow) heads off to college, Scott is still living with his exhausted ER nurse mother (Oscar®- winner Marisa Tomei) and spends his days smoking weed, hanging with his buddies and secretly hooking up with his childhood friend Kelsey (Bel Powley). When his mother starts dating a loudmouth firefighter (Bill Burr), it sets off a chain of events that will force Scott to grapple with his grief and take his first tentative steps towards moving forward in life.
THE KING OF STATEN ISLAND stars Pete Davidson (“Saturday Night Live”), Marisa Tomei (My Cousin Vinny), Bill Burr (Netflix’s “F is for Family”), Bel Powley (Apple TV+’s “The Morning Show”), Maude Apatow (HBO’s “Euphoria”, Netflix’s “Hollywood”) and Steve Buscemi (The Dead Don’t Die, Armageddon).

It has been a very hectic and busy five days for gamers looking forward to Next Generation consoles following a leak that forced Xbox into revealing not only the Xbox Series S but pricing, release date and when you can pre-order the Xbox Series x as well, which made PlayStation fans all ask…ok, what about us?
Well today PlayStation have announced a new PS5 Showcase for Wednesday 16th September at 9pm UK time.
Now this has to be the big reveal of pricing, release date and information on how and when fans can start to pre-order because it really is the only thing left for them to reveal. My guess at time of posting this article is that the PS5 will be £499 with the all digital version at £449, I really do not see them price matching the Series X simply because Sony know they will sell units whilst Microsoft are clearly focused on getting fans subscribed to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. I also expect the release date to be the week after Series X….time will tell!
But I really do hope that this will finally move fans passed the frustration of waiting for information and kick in the hype for the actual launch of the Next Generation of consoles in November.
Please please….let us just get to the fun part of a console launch finally!
As we approach yet another new console generation launch, it is a great time to get all nostalgic and look aback across previous generations for those game defining titles that captivated the hearts and minds of gamers so much so that now, nearly two decades in the case of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 & 2, still feel special with a want to play them again. This is why and how a good quality remake or a remastered version can bring such joy to us old-timers who still have those games in our hearts and I can quite happily say that Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 & 2 delivers on everything fans of the originals could hope as well as bringing it to a whole new generation.
The team at Vicarious Visions has done a fantastic job of remastering the original two games in the iconic Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series by not only keeping what made those games so loved by fans intact but being smart enough to look at the later games and bring some of those elements into the gameplay of Pro Skater 1 & 2 to help refine these early entries for those who still remember the later games. For me, I can always tell when a remaster is going to do well if within the first ten minutes of playing it I am transported back to those feelings and memories of playing the original game and here it did it right from the main menu and throughout and it just achieves everything you need a remastered or remake of a classic game to do. Blending the essentials of a remaster and a remake has absolutely paid off here.
Bringing the sport of Skateboarding to a video game was revolutionary with the Tony Hawk’s series as it managed to genuinely bring every element of it into a accessible and playable game experience which considering the intricacies of the moves and tricks you can perform was quite someone on the original PlayStation console. But now in 2020 that impressive control system is back, refined by some additional tricks and elements from the later games and what you still have now is fantastic brilliant game that allows anyone to pick up a controller, playthrough the exceptional tutorial will pick up the basics needed to jump right into the action.
Presentation wise, this is a very slick and smooth title that brings back both original games together where players can select either game to playthrough the original skate courses, all of things are intact and wonderfully kept as fans would remember them. Visually bringing them both into 2020 has made all the courses and animations look fantastic as anyone who did play the originals will no doubt welcome more smooth curves to blocky pixels. It looks incredible especially on the Xbox One X but where it really excelled for me, and I cannot even imagine the cost to bring this together, but almost the entire original soundtrack is back as well along with some fresh tracks but it is the original songs that bring the very essence of how nostalgia can work when used well. All these pieces come together so incredibly well that for me, this is easily one of the best remasters/remake titles to date.
So, for anyone who is new to the series and wondering what it is you actually do, both games, Pro Skater 1 and 2, have a series of courses which gives the player 2 minutes to complete as many challenges to complete in order to unlock the next course. This can be earning a certain combo score or just basically completing a set number of tricks. Courses still have the secrets and collectibles to discover, all of which are still in the same place on the maps as the original games such as finding all the letters to spell out SKATE or finding video tapes. This style allows players to quickly learn the tricks and play mechanics very quickly and soon you will be pulling off high scoring combos with the fanciest of moves and even if it takes you a while, there is enough here to allow players of all skill levels to get something from the gameplay and it will keep you coming back for more.
I really appreciated how your progress now carries on to either game so all unlocks go with you across the two games and you can float between the two at your leisure making this a brilliant celebration which brings two titles into one without having to bring you out of one in order to load into the next and leaving behind those very things you have worked hard to pick up. The Career mode allows you to earn money to unlock more cosmetics such as skate board styles and clothing for your own skater when you unlock the ability to create your own skater and whilst the customisation is still fairly basic, I personally would not want the RPG detail of creating a character style to something that is just about focusing on gameplay whilst adding a personal touch to your own skater.
I do find it a shame that once you have completed the Career Mode that there is no way to reset the progress and do it all again mainly because it is just so much fun to play through so getting to do it all over again would be additional fun and maybe this is something that could be added going forward as I have seen many others all asking for the same thing. Online wise, well it’s a tad basic right now during this initial launch period with casual and ranked modes where players race to score the highest combo possible but the developer team have confirmed they have plans to expand this experience going forward including private lobbies so just you and your mates can go old school together. Create your own skate park returns and is fluid and works well as you put your own trick stages together and now online, you can both upload and share your own creations as well as downloading others from the community to play yourself.
Overall, this really is an excellent trip down memory lane for anyone who remembers the original games whilst bringing it to a new audience of fans who will find the challenge and rewarding gameplay instantly engrossing. I appreciate that the developers at Vicarious Visions resisted the urge to just remake everything and instead made a conscious effort to keep as much of the original games features exactly how they were and simply refining and streamlining instead of over thinking what needed or could be changed for a new audience. A true example of “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” which is something other remasters could well have benefitted from.
This was a fantastic trip down memory lane and playing some of the iconic skate parks like ‘School’ and listening to the original soundtrack sounding and looking even better on my Xbox One X and TV system of 2020 rather than the CRT TV and PlayStation One from 2001 and yeah, the value of this is certainly not lost on me!
Much has changed since the last Ubisoft Forward and even in just the last 24 hours with the reveal of the Xbox Series X/S launch date news which saw Ubisoft announce that the Next Generation console upgrade will be available when the new Xbox consoles as well as the release date for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla being brought forward from November 15 to be a launch day title on November 10th. Amazingly, Ubisoft still has things to showcase including a couple of games rumoured to be a Prince of Persia reboot and another surprise game.
But there has also been some serious real issues Ubisoft has been addressing in recent months due to claims of sexual harassment, misconduct, bullying and sexism within the company and studios with many high position people being fired both quietly and publicly. Though this move also drew criticism for being left out of the event itself, here is the video with a Message from CEO Yves Guillemot:
Now on to the event itself and a chance for Ubisoft fans to get an update on upcoming games and perhaps some surprises as well, below you will see all the new and trailers as they happened in the event as well as my own final thoughts.
The show opens up with the formerly named “Gods and Monsters” but now known as…

Riders Republic Ski, snowboard, bike or wingsuit across a massive multiplayer playground. Available 25th February 2021 on current and next gen!
That’s all folks…..event ends with news that another Ubisoft Forward will be held.
My Final Thoughts……
This was a well paced digital event that had a real sense of focusing on new information on games such as Immortals Fenyx Rishing, Riders Republic as well as confirmation of the rumoured Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake and Scott Pilgrim Vs the World Complete Edition which the original has not been seen since it vanished from digital stores six years ago.
As a fan of the original Watch Dogs as well as a born and bred Londoner, loving that Aiden Pearce is back and playable with his own story arc in Watch Dogs Legion and the recruitment trailer definitely shows a different playing style from the first two games. Release dates take us from October 2020 right through into 2021 with games coming out October, November December and January with Immortals Fenyz Rising absolutely grabbing my attention with its December release which is interesting to follow Legion and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, the latter surprising did not feature tonight but then there is another Ubisoft Forward which I sense will lead into the next console Generation launch.
Well presented with lots of fresh news but nothing really huge for those who are not already fans of Ubisoft games, this did the the job and managed expectations yet again I felt.
Well it seems the leak of the Xbox Series S with pricing and specs yesterday has kicked Xbox into high gear as just now, 24 hours later, a whole bunch of news has just dropped for Xbox fans as the Series X now has a Price, release date along with Pre-Orders to go live for Series X/S on September 22nd
This is the tweet…
Xbox Series X: £449 (ERP) Xbox Series S: £249 (ERP)
So the question of who would fire the news first, PlayStation or Xbox, has been answered. Xbox Series X will cost £449 and Series S as we know from yesterday at £249, both to release come November 10th 2020. Pre-Orders will go live on September 22nd in just 13 days time.
Not only that, but EA have also come out and announced that the full EA Play subscription service is to be included at no additional charge to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, which gives Xbox LIVE GOLD For console and Xbox Game pass for console and Windows 10 PC for one monthly price. It will join this Christmas holiday.
If all that has not blown your mind, then Ubisoft has also announced that Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will now release earlier in time with the launch of the Xbox Series X/S on November 10th
Assassin's Creed Valhalla launches with Xbox Series X | S on 10th November, 2020. Build the legend of a Viking raider on any console. Upgrade from Xbox One to Xbox Series X at no additional cost. pic.twitter.com/0IH29wpbIz
So Xbox fans have it all now…pre-order date, pricing and release date. What a difference 24 hours can make huh.
Sony still reportedly are going or were planning on doing the same, now all eyes are on them for the same information but bravo to Xbox for taking a leak and turning into a fantastic data drop of news!
