Not long after teasing a collaboration on Twitter, Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout and Super Bomberman R officially are coming together, swapping character skins for an epic crossover event. Both games are bringing a special-edition character skin from the other, the Bomberman skin coming to Fall Guys on June 4, and the Fall Guy skin heading to Super Bomberman R Online today. The collaboration marks another in the long list of crossovers for Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout, as the game attempts to compete with Fortnite for the best crossovers in the gaming business.
In only one year, Fall Guys has brought dozens of epic pop-culture skins to the obstacle-style game. Shovel Knight, DOOM, Godzilla, and Among Us characters have all entered the Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout tournament. All those characters and more jumping into the light-hearted labyrinth of puzzles, races, and team-based mayhem. Now, Fall Guys is adding another epic skin for players to collect, and the famous jelly bean is heading over for some fun in the Super Bomberman universe.
According to a Twitter post from Fall Guys, the crossover starts today, with Fall Guy heading to Super Bomberman R Online for some intense battle royale fun. In just a couple of weeks, Bomberman will make its appearance in Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout, with the skin inbound on June 4th. Konami was quick to post its own announcement, saying that “that bean looks great with a pom-pom.”
Super Bomberman R Online players can cause some serious chaos with Bean Bomber, as players attempt to be the last person standing in the 64-player battle royale based on the original Super Bomberman gameplay. Falls Guys players will have access to the Bomberman skin come June, as players use their well-earned crowns to purchase another incredible crossover skin. Adding Super Bomberman to the list of collaborations gives Fall Guys a chance at catching up to Fortnite as both games compete to garner the best team-ups in the biz.
Fall Guys has teamed up with many indie games, and it will likely continue to do so to garner more attention from a wider audience. The game’s mainstream popularity also serves the indie game, as crossovers reveal games to players that they might have not known before. Super Bomberman R is a great example, as players from both platforms learn about the other. It’s a win-win for both games. Hopefully, Fall Guys will maintain its hot streak and get other epic crossovers with more amazing indie hits.
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is available to play on PC, PS4, and PS5 platforms; the Super Bomberman R-themed content goes live June 4.
