MediatonicFall Guys is no stranger to a crossover and Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas is the latest property to get the ‘bean’ treatment. Here’s everything we know about this crossover event, from the start date to the new costumes you can unlock.
When it first became a smash-hit back in 2020, Fall Guys was a refreshing take on the battle royale formula. Blending the genre’s formula with a Total Wipeout-style platformer made for one of the most entertaining releases of the year.
Since then, Mediatonic have worked tirelessly to keep the game ticking over with fresh content. Among all the new seasons, crossovers have become a key part of the Fall Guys ethos.
Now, with the holiday season upon us, the devs have announced a brand new event that will see the game crossover with Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. Here are all the details we know so far.
