The crossover event will introduce a new Bean Hill Zone level, and plenty of Sonic-themed cosmetics to grab. The hype surrounding Sonic the Hedgehog right now is relatively high, especially given that 30th anniversary celebrations for the swift hedgehog have been underway for a while now. We’re also still awaiting the release of Sonic Frontiers, and it was announced just yesterday that a third Sonic the Hedgehog movie is on the way! So, it would make perfect sense for the blue blur to make a cameo elsewhere, right? Especially given recent leaks that the hedgehog may be coming to Fall…

The screenshot of the Sonic stage was included in the ‘next up’ screen, most…

Fall Guys Free for All launches, immediately plagued with server issues

Mediatonic certainly didn’t expect so many clumsy beans to jump into the game at once. Yesterday, Fall Guys did something that many of us had been wanting them to do for a while now. Mediatonic’s clumsy title went free to play, arrived on Xbox and Nintendo Switch, and introduced cross-platform play. This is a big move for the title, which appears to have a copious amount of adoring fans who have been waiting for this day. Jump into Fall Guys Free for All now! Server issues permitting. Sadly, the launch wasn’t without its problems. It took me about forty minutes…
