Fall Guys: How To Survive Each Knockout Round

Survival challenges can be some of the harder rounds to qualify on in Fall Guys - whereas in races and team games you can afford to make a few mistakes and still get back ahead of your opponents, in survival rounds a single slip-up often means instant elimination. What's more, the format allows for far more aggressive strategies from other players, who can grab and shove you around to try and knock you off your feet to prevent you from avoiding hazards.

While there's no accounting for how other players will act, there are certain tricks and strategies you can use to make each game easier and increase the chances of your little bean man making it through to the next round.

Block Party can be one of the more challenging survival games - there's not much room to manoeuvre on the small platform you share with the rest of the players, and as the difficulty ramps up later on it can get very hectic trying to push your way through everyone else rushing to the safe spots. It's also a game where you'll often get aggressive players trying to grab and push you into the path of the oncoming walls, making it even more dangerous.

One way to give yourself an easier time is to try and stay towards either the front or the back of the platform, away from the crowded middle. This makes it easier to run for gaps without having to jostle your way through other players, which is especially helpful when the blocks you have to jump over start appearing - jumping in crowds is a surefire way to get knocked over and pushed away by the next block.

You should also try and memorise the different block patterns that come up so you know where to place yourself at different points in the game. The patterns change to more difficult ones the later in the Show that Block Party turns up, so make sure you know what to expect.
