In anticipation of Godzilla Day and the popular Godzilla Festival in Japan, Mediatonic and Toho Co., Ltd. push fans to celebrate the King of the Monsters with the most beloved kaiju, bringing him closer to players around the world in Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout.
Starting on November 3 and for a limited time only, fans will have the opportunity to wear a brand new Godzilla skin for 10 crowns. With typical Godzilla features such as the three rows of backplates, the character adapts to the world of Fall Guys in different colors, depending on which one suits the game best.
A rabidly successful, with millions of copies sold, Fall Guys is an online multiplayer title that launches hordes of participants to survive, round after round, in an increasingly chaotic mad race that will result in only one winner, the last one remaining. standing. The Godzilla crossover comes right after the season two premiere, which introduces new medieval-themed games, costumes, and features.
“We are excited to collaborate with Mediatonic on this Godzilla costume. Just two months after its launch and with millions of gamers around the world, Fall Guys looks exciting to Godzilla fans, “says Lora Cohn, Managing Director of Toho International, Inc.” Now, players can celebrate the Day of Godzilla in a unique way, donning the Godzilla suit and stomping his way to victory! ”
“There are many parallels between the mighty Godzilla and any Fall Guy: they are both furiously competitive, they fight on an international stage at high risk, they always come back after being defeated and, according to the disturbing news reaching our social media channels, both they are much taller than we imagined, ”says Jeff Tanton, Mediatonic’s vice president creative. “We are deeply proud and honored to share the stage with the greatest of kaijus. And if someone is still struggling to get a crown with this costume, even if it sounds primitive and unscientific, we recommend asking the priestesses of the children’s island for help. Maybe they can intervene.
On November 3, 1954, the famous Japanese creature made its first appearance in Toho’s production of Godzilla, a classic monster movie considered a masterpiece. The date is officially Godzilla’s birthday, which is celebrated in Japan each year with the Godzilla Festival.
