Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is an instant hit for developer Mediatonic and publisher Devolver Digital. It’s fame is a bit surreal and it looks like a mobile version of the Takeshi’s Castle-like platformer is now in development in China.
Niko Partners senior analyst Daniel Ahmad revealed through Twitter that “Chinese games and entertainment company Bilibili has secured the right to publish a mobile version of Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout in China”.

This is the first official confirmation of a mobile version of Fall Guys. There’s no word of a mobile version heading to the west at this time and the mobile version mentioned will only be published in China.
The demand and fame of Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is apparent with it being the most viewed game on Twitch and a top seller on Steam since it debuted this month. Let’s not also forget that every PS Plus subscriber on the PS4 gets a free copy of the game this August, which you can still pick up until August 31 if you haven’t secured a copy yet.
A mobile version this early shows that many are scrambling to meet the demand, to a point that Mediatonic had to remind the public via Twitter that there is no official mobile version currently available.

b) There's literally a mouse cursor on the screen
c) I don't want to live on this planet anymore

With the game’s current momentum, this is no surprise as many are trying to ride the fall Guys hype. On that note, It won’t be shocking to see the game expand to other platforms (a Switch version sounds amazing), or spark new projects that are greatly inspired by Fall Guys.
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii reuses the Infinite Wealth setting that still feels fresh and exciting for many and is packed with an absurd pirate theme that reminds us that the Yakuza series can go anywhere it wants and still find ways to entertain. Over 10 hours in, Pirate Yakuza is already showing that RGG can still give reason to invest time on their spinoff projects.

A couple of weeks after the launch of anime extraction shooter Synduality: Echo of Ada, Bandai Namco and developer Game Studio revealed that the game’s season 1 update will include a new map called East Amasia, new Requests (quests), gear, and more.
Synduality Echo of Ada has potential, but its flawed economy, tedious grind, and lack of meaningful story incentives make it hard to recommend in its current state. Without drastic improvements, it risks being forgotten before it ever finds a steady audience.
Sony will no longer require PC players to sign up for a PSN account to play any of Sony’s games when they become available on PC. Moving forward, the incentive for having a PSN will be in the form of in-game rewards.
