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
