Fall Guys' Deeply Disturbing Lore Explained

At this point, you’re probably thinking, “Well, at least I can offer my Fall Guy an escape from this nightmare scenario every time that they’re knocked out of a match.” So far as that goes, I somehow have even more bad news for you.

Fall Guys Don’t Permanently Die and Are Regularly Pulled From The Pleasures of a Peaceful Afterlife

By now, you should know better than to ask any questions about the Fall Guys universe unless you want an answer you may or may not be able to handle. Even still, I’m willing to bet that every Fall Guys player has wondered what happens to their character when they fall off-screen and lose a match. Unfortunately, Walsh has an answer for that too.

“A moment of displacement, serenity, zen-like detachment from all worldly and physical bonds… Then they pop back onto the podium to celebrate their achievements!” Walsh says regarding the nature of the Fall Guys’ afterlife. “What you’re seeing when you respawn is the same Fall Guy, so the more you play the more you’ve been through together. You’ve put that Fall Guy through a lot, you know.”

It’s that last part that really stings. It’s bad enough to know that we’re regularly yanking Fall Guys out of their serenity in order to do our bidding (aka the “Buffy the Vampire Slayer“), but the fact that they seemingly remember the many, many times I’ve failed them is truly tough to bear. It’s bad enough that I have to be reminded of the many Fall Guys matches I’ve lost over the years. I don’t see why the Fall Guys should also carry that psychological trauma with them.

As if that wasn’t enough, Walsh suggests that Fall Guys simply “fill the void” when they’re not actively participating in the competition. Honestly, I just don’t want to sympathize with my Fall Guy as much as I do.

Fall Guys Compete Naked if You Haven’t Equipped a Skin For Them

While developers have gone to some pretty desperate lengths to get you to buy cosmetic DLC over the years, few have resorted to suggesting that not buying a character skin means forcing your character to compete while naked. As you’ve undoubtedly figured out, though, that’s exactly what the Fall Guys team is willing to do.
