Fall Guys Season 3 starts next week, adds the terrifying 'ringus dingus'

The winter-themed Season 3 of Fall Guys will be a bigger deal than the somewhat underwhelming Season 2, featuring seven new levels and over 30 new costumes, as well as more emotes and obstacles like, let me check my notes here, "ringus dingus". Probably some snowballs too.

One of those new costumes, as seen in the trailer that debuted during The Game Awards, is based on the jolly Christmas-themed folkloric punisher of bad children Krampus. There's also a penguin in a bowtie, a ski-slope outfit, a red-nosed reindeer, a grumbly yeti, a snowman in a top hat, a narwhal, a candle, someone bundled up in Christmas wrapping paper, and one that looks kind of like one of the three wise men? I don't know, maybe that's supposed to be Saint Genesius, patron saint of bumbling off a ledge into a fan-blade.

Season 3 starts on December 15, and Fall Guys will be handing out double XP until then.

Jody's first computer was a Commodore 64, so he remembers having to use a code wheel to play Pool of Radiance. A former music journalist who interviewed everyone from Giorgio Moroder to Trent Reznor, Jody also co-hosted Australia's first radio show about videogames, Zed Games. He's written for Rock Paper Shotgun, The Big Issue, GamesRadar, Zam, Glixel, Five Out of Ten Magazine, and Playboy.com, whose cheques with the bunny logo made for fun conversations at the bank. Jody's first article for PC Gamer was about the audio of Alien Isolation, published in 2015, and since then he's written about why Silent Hill belongs on PC, why Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale is the best fantasy shopkeeper tycoon game, and how weird Lost Ark can get. Jody edited PC Gamer Indie from 2017 to 2018, and he eventually lived up to his promise to play every Warhammer videogame.
