![]() ![]() If you’re buying the game for a younger gamer or for something that you could play with the family, Fall Guys almost certainly wins out. But it should be noted that the $19.99 you have to pony up for Fall Guys is pretty affordable compared to some other titles with half the hype, and the game is going strong out the gates. If you’re a hardcore gamer with a few years of honed FPS reflexes and multiple tours through Battle royale staples like PUBG, Modern Warfare or Apex, then it might be worth a shot to give Hyper Scape your time first. ![]() Think: Are you more into platformers or shooters? More into slapstick hijinks or high-stakes PvP? Do you like to ride the wave of popularity or dig deep into a niche game? If you like games with an energized, active community and a more relaxed vibe, Fall Guys would be more up your alley. Hyper Scape, on the other hand, is perfect for veterans who like the classic battle royale formula, but desperately want to see it renewed. It’s the newest kid on the block in terms of originality. If you want something completely unlike any other battle royale Fall Guys is undeniably it. Where Fall Guys gives us something we haven’t seen before with its Ninja Warrior style mob-rush gameplay, Hyper Scape looks for individuality by attempting to make an already familiar experience better. Deciding Factors Noveltyīoth games are still hot off the press with Fall Guys being about a week old and Hyper Scape a little over a month, but they search for novelty in different ways. It’s a big-budget, expansive attempt to rework the classic formula and breathe new life into it without overhauling it completely. Players can fuse copies of the same weapon for enhanced power (keeping looting relevant to the late game), collect powerups called “hacks” that can be employed alongside traditional gunplay for enhanced combat (creating customizable, more distinct playstyles), and instead of sitting out or exiting the server, players can remain helpful and involved in gameplay even after death, serving as scouts for their team until possibly being resurrected mid-match - making sure your time doesn’t feel wasted. Set in a far-flung sci-fi metropolis, Hyper Scape makes bold moves to combine elements of classic arena shooters like Quake with the better parts of traditional royales while shucking out certain mechanics that should’ve died a long time ago. The game emphasizes unprecedented mobility and tweaks to the traditional battle royale formula designed to enhance gameplay and smooth out some longstanding design issues in the DNA of the genre. Hyper Scape is Ubisoft’s late entrant into the battle royale pool and one that made a lot of noise in the lead up to its debut. ![]() The concept is simple, but the execution is brilliant, and the game ingeniously finds a way to ramp up the tension while making you laugh out loud. Instead of gun battles and vicious combat, the game zeroes in on a sense of frantic madness as you and the dozens mobbing around you try to get through the course without slipping, falling - or being pushed - off into oblivion. There are over twenty of these surreal levels to compete in, with matches consisting of five rounds designed to rapidly whittle away the player count en route to a final showdown to grab the winning Crown at the end of the final level. Chaos ensues as 60 player-controlled, anthropomorphic jellybeans are unleashed across a series of obstacle courses that look something like if Total Wipeout or American Ninja Warrior had a baby with Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory, and it’s wild. Fall Guys is an unrepentantly colorful, physics-based platformer that plays a little like Human Fall Flat if it were interbred with a straight-up battle royale and wrapped up in a glossy, candy coating. ![]()
