Fall Guys, Published by Devolver Digital, is without a doubt the game of the moment. With already two million players exceeded (1 million at launch), the skin customization it is certainly among the most influential gaming attractions, at least when looking at the social networks.
Among the costumes that can be found in the game there are also some skins that are inspired by famous videogame characters, such as Gordon Freeman e Alyx by Half Life, o Jacket by Hotline Miami. It is for this reason that many video game companies and others are trying to ride the wave of Fall Guys fame for ask for your own skin.
Staying on the subject of video games, for example, the most striking case is that of Konami: the British division of the company proposed on Twitter a trio of Solid Snake of the Metal Gear Solid saga, visible in the image above. For fans of the franchise, it would be fun to see a clumsy Snake sneak through the colorful levels of Fall Guys, and who knows if stealth doesn't help win a game.
Not only the giants of the video game, but also the indie developers are having fun imagining Fall Guys skins. Above, for example, you can see the work of a game artist from Bossa Studios, the videogame house behind the development of Surgeon Simulator 2. The artist drew a skin of the patient Bob, the unfortunate who ends up under the knife of the clumsy surgeons of the game. In the image below, on the other hand, there is a double version of the formal main character of Last Man Sitting, designed by the creator of the game.
Distancing ourselves from the world of video games, however, we find a flood of companies that share their creations practically every second. The most striking is the skin published by KFC, the well-known fast food chain that in the past has already catapulted itself into the virality of social media with other video games such as Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Can you imagine the colonel staggering between the platforms of Fall Guys?
Another big famous company that pitched its skin idea to Fall Guys social media managers is Walmart. The Canadian division of the popular supermarket chain, rather than designing or modeling their ideal type of costume, has literally made a photomontage: the jacket of Walmart employees wearing a basic model of a game character.
The hilarious thing is that the cyberpunk 2077 he felt "threatened" by the competition, and replied to Walmart "please get in line." A few hours earlier, in fact, it was Fall Guys who proposed a cyberpunk-themed game skin. Memes and requests about it were wasted on social networks from that moment on.
The same social media managers of Fall Guys make fun of themselves, following the ironic line that the game wants to communicate. In fact, their expansionist aims with regard to skins did not stop at big titles or big companies, but they also reached, for example, the ... Nickelback.
While we laugh and joke along with social media managers on Twitter, we remind you that Fall Guys is one of the games with the most active users right now and that it is grinding record su record. You can buy Fall Guys on Steam and on PlayStation 4, where you can also get it for free this month if you have a PS Plus subscription. The developers are already hard at work bringing the game to other platforms, and soon they will let us know more about it.
