Fall Guys is one of the surprise hits of the year. The delightful bumble royale has sold over seven million units sold on Steam alone and is the most downloaded PlayStation Plus game ever. While it's endearing to see a hit come out of nowhere, it does mean that Mediatonic has to consider new features that the developer didn't think it would need.
Part of the new PC game's success comes from having blown up on Twitch, which has led to an upcoming Twitch Rivals tournament. While games with esports ambitions typically offer custom lobbies or servers, Fall Guys doesn't have that just yet as the scale of success it has had couldn't really have been anticipated. In an interview with The Loadout reports, however, some form of private lobbies will be introduced when the developer figures out how it would make sense in the world it's built.
"It's still early days, but it's something we hear a desire for," game designer Joe Walsh says. "Fall Guys is ultimately a TV show, and people want to be the director, they want to run their own show. We totally hear the demand for that, but it'll take us a little while to figure out what that looks like exactly. But it's on our list of things to do."
