It’s been a long time coming, but Fall Guys has finally arrived in Fortnite. The bean-based competition game begins its integration into the Fortnite ecosystem in several different ways–with Fortnite creative islands by Fall Guys developer Mediatonic, the ability for users to publish their own Fall Guys maps and, most importantly, an all-new Fall Guys-themed mini-game for battle royale and Zero Build.
Let’s start with that. With this week’s update, Fortnite battle royale will now host a Fall Guys mini-game that players can participate in by praising one of the statues of a Fall Guys bean person located around Classy Courts. Once you do, you’ll be transformed into a bean person and made to play Fall Guys in an obstacle course in the sky. You’ll have 120 seconds to complete it for loot–the faster you get it done, the better your loot will be. You can only complete it once per match, but you get three tries. And once the bean statues are in the storm you’re locked out.
This is similar to a feature from Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 7, during which players could be abducted by aliens and made to play a competitive mini-game. But in this case, the choice to participate is entirely yours. Along with the mini-game will be a series of “Where We Fallin'” quests for rewards, including a bean person back bling.
What’s particularly cool about this is that, as with Lego versions of skins, each of your Fortnite original skins will have a unique bean person design. Sadly, none of the current collaboration skins, like Marvel or Star Wars, is getting the bean guy treatment just yet, and so if you’re wearing one of those then you’ll appear as a generic, naked bean.
On top of the battle royale event, Fall Guys is getting six new Fortnite Creative islands from developer Mediatonic, and users can also now publish their own Fall Guys-themed islands as well.
This summer season has been unusually full of events in Fortnite, starting with Metallica and Reload in June, All Sweat Summer, Pirates of the Caribbean and Tesla in July, and now this Fall Guys stuff in August. Meanwhile, Chapter 5 Season 4 is very close at hand, starting on August 16.
