As with most popular online games at launch, Fall Guys was hit with some pretty severe server problems. With the game proving to be a smash hit with millions of players, the servers almost immediately collapsed under the strain, leading to prolonged periods of downtime. It's an unfortunate situation, but now that the game has (mostly) stabilised, getting into matches is much more consistent.
By way of apology, developer Mediatonic is giving everyone some in-game goodies:
As you can see in the above tweet, you'll be automatically gifted a legendary cactus costume as well as 5,000 Kudos, the game's currency. It's also noted that you need to have logged into the game before midnight tonight to be awarded these freebies.
It's a nice gesture from the team, and we imagine you'll be seeing plenty of these blue cactuses waddling around in games for the next few days. We're also due an update very soon that will add a new round and fix some nasty bugs, so things are looking up for Fall Guys players right now.

Am I the only one to be rubbish at this game? My kid is way better at it.
Off topic, there s a Jim Ryan twitter account and a lot of people think it's real.
It's a parody account, right? Right???
Awww that looks so cute! My fiancée is gonna love that when she falls into the abyss while I'm on my way to that second dubski of the night.
Not even Slime Climb can bring me down.
I've never finished slime climb 😟
Won a few crowns but still never finished slime climb. It’s running along the tubes that gets me!
@JJ2 Yeah, it's a parody account.
Logged in this morning and both games I got into crashed after the first round. I think the game's charming, but those server issues are brutal when they hit.
@get2sammyb Wait, really? It fooled me. That account is pretty tame for a parody account.
Cheers
I thought so
It's kinda disturbing. It comes up on my Twitter because I follow PS5 topic I guess and seeing people running with it is sort of creepy
Slime Climb’s the best game. It results in two round shows and because I can do the races basically every time, I’m guaranteed a shot at the crown.
Man, I don't even have the game downloaded yet.
Ah well.
@Dobbos haha same here mate, that level is so annoying, nearly did it the other day managed to get near the end and those big balls knocked me into the slime. I was so gutted, one day m8. Still loving it though, such good fun. Maybe that cactus costume will give us the power to finally finish it haha.
Odd, I logged in this morning and did not get the costume or the kudos. Has this gone live yet?
@nessisonett I'm with you on Slime Climb. Just take your time and you're fine.
@Churchy Today the number of people being annoyingly impatient meant a pile up that ended up getting me eliminated. Urgh.
Put on my cactus suit - trophy for equipping legendary outfit. Then won my first ever episode (fluked it!)
Awesome. Just awesome.
Where is the inverted y-axis option?! Seriously what the hell
Oh cool, I wondered where the cactus had come from! It's a costume I would have tried to buy anyway, I figured I'd bought it and forgotten!
