Fall Guys has officially released an amusing new trailer, cinematic trailer, and a lengthy blog post with extensive details on all the new content fans can expect to see next season. The new season, now titled “Satellite Scramble”, will release soon on September 15th, 2022.
Here’s the big announcement from Fall Guys’ Twitter feed, which includes two marketing trailers that are only slightly different:
It’s odd to see Fall Guys wait so long before the literal launch date, only to release a surprising volume of content that fans will get this Thursday. While they did prepare fans with a special satellite event, most of the recent leaks for season 2 were pretty limited, so there was no incentive to explain so much.
The new trailers don’t bother showing any gameplay, which is sort of disappointing, but the marketing tactics continue to be just as creative and silly as fans could possibly hope.
The official blog post did include some images of the upcoming content, including detailed explanations for new obstacles, rounds and cosmetics. Fortunately, the art design and names for each new course and cosmetic are pretty clever.
Players will need to find invisible paths, stick to giant hoverboards, or recreate pixel patterns by jumping on tiles. Overall, the devs have definitely delivered on the space them in all of the best ways possible.
Meanwhile, some of the new costumes will include famous IP crossovers like Spock, Xenomorph and Hatsune Miku. While these will provide a fun incentive to invest in the battle pass, the original costumes seem even more interesting and cute.
The introduction of new obstacles like Ion Thrusters, Hover Platforms and Trolleybots suggest that the devs may actually move beyond cosmetic-driven content in the future. However, there are still plenty of bugs to work out, including continuing issues with matchmaking and terrain hiccups.
