Delayed Fall Guys Xbox and Switch releases are one of Mediatonic’s ‘top priorities’
It had been speculated the game would come to the consoles this year
Mediatonic has said that releasing the delayed Xbox and Nintendo Switch versions of Fall Guys is one of the studio’s “top priorities in active development”.
Fall Guys was originally due to be released for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and Switch this summer, but was delayed to give the studio time to implement new features like cross-play.
It had been speculated that the game’s Xbox and Switch releases could be timed to coincide with the launch of Fall Guys Season 6 on Tuesday, but that didn’t come to pass.
“We know everyone’s excited about Fall Guy coming to Nintendo Switch and Xbox, with good reason,” Mediatonic said this week.
“There’s been a lot of speculation on social media connecting these new console releases to the Season 6 launch and we want to clarify that that’s not the case so no one’s left confused looking for the game on these platforms.
“Thank you for being patient with us, it’s one of our top priorities in active development and we can’t wait to share more details with you in 2022.”
