Fall Guys Season 4 takes the fun-loving jellybeans to the high-tech future on March 22 for PS4 and PC. The new season brings with it a host of new mini-games, emotes, and other neon-drenched goodies.
Season 4 sends players to the year 4041 and introduces seven new rounds filled with astronauts, aliens, as well as the mysterious “Beans In Black”. We don’t know what the new minigames will be but the cinematic trailer gives a glimpse of the challenges in store. The video also provides a tantalizing, not-so-subtle tease to a certain popular deception game some might describe as being pretty “sus”.

Fall Guys launched last August for PC and as a free PlayStation Plus game and became one of the year’s breakout multiplayer hits. The game pits up to 60 players against each other in challenges over several rounds, eliminating players until only one is left standing. It’s become popular enough to even boast various crossovers with other games, including Sonic the Hedgehog, Doom, and, most recently, Cuphead.
2021 has thus far proven to be a huge year for Fall Guys. For one, the game is spreading its wings by heading to Switch and Xbox platforms this summer. Even bigger, though, is that the game’s parent company, Tonic, was acquired by Epic Games last week. You can read about what that means for Fall Guys going forward by reading here.
How do you think Season 4 is shaping up compared to previous seasons? What do you make of that tease at the end? If you’ve fallen off of Fall Guys (pun intended), is this Season enough to lure you back? Let us know in the comments!
Devotion, the delisted horror game by Taiwanese developer Red Candle Games, has returned to sale following controversies with both the Chinese government and GOG.com. The game is being sold directly through Red Candles’ website after spending most of its existence removed from digital store shelves.
The game is being sold DRM-free for Windows and Mac for $16.99 or you can grab a bundle that includes a soundtrack for the current sale price of $20.68 (reduced from its standard price of $22.98). If you’ve been itching to give Devotion a shot, now would be the time to do so because it has had a tough time remaining available to say the least.
Hello, Red Candle e-shop is now online. https://t.co/smmZxHj7zQ#返校Detention, #還願Devotion and our future projects will all be on e-shop in DRM-free format.

The first-person psychological horror game is a follow-up of sorts to the popular game Detention and released on Steam in February 2019 to positive reviews from the few players lucky enough to get their hands on it. I say “lucky” because mere days after Devotion launched, it was discovered that the game featured an in-game poster that referenced Chinese president Xi Jinping as Winnie the Pooh and called him a "moron", imagery that is censored in China. The meme raised the ire of its Chinese audience, and the game delisted from Steam (with Red Candles citing QA reasons and apologizing for the poster) and never returned to sale. Devotion’s Chinese publishers also had their business licenses revoked by the government.
Hope arose on December 16 of last year when Red Candle Games announced that Devotion would be returning to sale, this time through GOG.com. That rug got pulled out when CD Projekt, who owns GOG.com, backtracked just a few hours later by saying the game would not be sold on the storefront after it received messages from “gamers”.
This should be great news for horror fans because, by most accounts, Devotion is supremely creepy and worth checking out (I already grabbed it because I’m not tempting fate again). Will you be giving it a shot? Let us know in the comments!
