Stumble Guys, a Fall Guys ripoff, is currently number one on the free iPhone game charts in both the US and the UK.
Stumble Guys, a game created by Finland's Kitka Games, actually had a limited launch in the months following Fall Guys' August 2020 PS4 and PC release before going live worldwide in January 2021.
According to data from market intelligence service AppMagic, the game had a mediocre year last year but has really taken off lately (via MobileGamer.biz).
Stumble Guys is now ranked in the top 10 of both the US and UK Google Play download lists. Since its introduction, the app has received over 163 million downloads and brought in $21.5 million.
Similar to Fall Guys, the multiplayer knockout game pits players against one another in a succession of bright obstacle courses until only one player is left. It also offers a number of personalization possibilities.
Stumble Guys 2 was also made available for PC in October 2021, and according to the game's creator, 18 million people play it every day currently.
According to reports, 32.8 million people downloaded Stumble Guys in June, which resulted in user expenditure of $6.6 million. On June 25, when 1.5 million gamers downloaded the game in a single day, downloads reached their peak.
Just four days after Fall Guys went free-to-play last month, Stumble Guys downloads peaked. Fall Guys was also made available for the first time on June 21 via the Epic Games Store, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch.
The PC version was also taken off Steam's sales platform, however those who already purchased it will still receive full support.
The rights to release a mobile version of Fall Guys in China in 2020 have been acquired by Chinese gaming and entertainment business Bilibili.
