PlayStation Plus has offered up some belting games over the years, but none -- not even the mighty Rocket League -- have proven to be as popular as Fall Guys. The incredibly dumb but incredibly fun multiplayer title was added to the service last month, and it's already the most downloaded PS Plus game of all time.
Last we heard, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered was the most redeemed title to ever hit PS Plus, followed by Sonic Forces, Shadow of the Colossus, Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, and Destiny 2. Fall Guys has surpassed the lot of them, which is seriously impressive.
Indeed, it seems as though nothing can stop Fall Guys right now. A recent estimate had the game pegged at around 16 million players on PS4, and the title's about to enter its second season, which will be revealed during Gamescom Opening Night Live 2020.

I do love it. Just great fun playing a game or so every day.
Wait, Rocket League is not in the top 5???
(I see that others have had the same comments in the previous article, but it still seems unbelievable to me...)
Edit : oh, and kudos to Fall Guys wonderful little game that is!
Absolutely nuts! Well deserved success, look forward to seeing where the take this in the future!
Brilliant move by the devs to put it straight on PS+
And the game was number 1 & 2 in the Steam charts as well.
Crazy. I'm happy to see a game like this really take off.
Glad it's doing well. I don't normally have PS Plus, but I did acquire it in order to play Fall Guys.
Great fun game what feels like a great change of pace from anything else, very happy its done so well.
May be the most downloaded, but for me, definitely not the most played.
@Olmaz rocket league was given for free in July 2015. Barely 1.5 years after PS4 launch. A lot more consoles are sold now, and PS+ subscribers.
Great game but that Infallible trophy puts a sour note on the game!
@Zanao Yeah you must be right. Incredible to think of the massive increase in PS+ users since that time if that popular a game is not in the top 5...
@Olmaz for sure, I play Rocket League to this day. Still has a large community, and will be F2P pretty soon!
Not the best but I've unlocked 21 crowns at level 36 right now. Really enjoying FallGuys way more than I expected. FallGuys and Dead by Daylight alone already made my plus subscription more than worth it. I probably never would've bought those games otherwise. Not to mention al the ps plus exclusive discounts. Not all months are my cup of tea when it comes to the free games but I'm more than happy with my subscription.
And I haven't even bothered downloading it yet.
Gotta get PS Plus, all the hype makes me even more interested in checking it out.
All the success is well deserved! Such a great idea for a family game. Iβm loving pushing people off the edge whenever possible. Some jerk grabbed me at the finish line when I was about to grab the crown this morning π I just laughed hysterically.
Tbh I wasn't going to, I added it to my list about a week ago and downloaded because my nephew was here. It's a fun bit of competition. Takeshi's Castle but with bean dudes. I have to say, though, that I couldn't play after he left but maybe because my back log is too big for an endless online game. We seemed to have played a good amount of the games and I may download it again in the future, depending on how many players are still logging in.
Looks like a fun game but as Jim Sterling reported last week won't be long before it's get pumped full of company skins etc and sponsorships
@Ralizah Same here, it's just sitting in my library but I'm glad other people like it.
@Si_Is_The_One considering Fall Guys released Feb this year, itβs hardly surprising other games may have been played more... π
@Arnna As in... 'for me'... as in, I haven't played it, as I don't like it.
This is pretty misleading, because it's comparing it to games given away many years ago, when there were only 15-20 million PS4 accounts (rather than 110+) AND perhaps more worthy of note, Fall Guys was made free on it's RELEASE DAY, while nearly all other PS Plus games are years old games, many that have already sold millions. Even when people would want to take a PS Plus game, the numbers are lowered drastically because it won't include anyone who bought the game before then. Meanwhile, virtually anyone who wanted Fall Guys day one would be a PS Plus user. There wouldn't even be a reason to buy the game for non-PS Plus users because 1) a month of PS Plus is $10, the game costs $20.. so why pay $20 for just the game when you can get the game and a month of PS Plus for half as much.. and 2) You can't even play the game without PS Plus anyway.. so there's no reason to buy it at all otherwise.
