Fall Guys has gone free-to-play and can now be enjoyed across most gaming systems.

With its free-to-play status and availability on so many platforms, some players want to move over to their console of choice. They can even switch between platforms with cross-progression by creating an Epic Games account.

Epic Games now owns Mediatonic, the company behind Fall Guys' development. This makes having an Epic Games account a requirement to access the same account on different devices.

Here is how to sign up for an Epic Games account for newer players who may not have one:

  • Visit the official website for the Epic Games Store
  • Click the tab to sign in at the top right
  • Scroll down to find the option to create a new account
  • Users can enter information to make the account or sign up through other services like Facebook or Steam
  • Submit the sign-up process, and an Epic Games account will now be available

Be sure to sign in to the device that has all of the cosmetics and unlockables first. It will be considered the primary account and can be used to ensure cross-progression across every platform.

Once players have an Epic Games account and have chosen their main Fall Guys system, they can begin transferring progress:

  • Stay on the Epic Games Store website
  • Hover the cursor over the username in the top-right corner of the screen
  • Select Account from the dropdown menu that appears
  • Navigate to Connections from the left-side menu section
  • Click the Accounts tab within the Connections area
  • Link the main system Fall Guys is played on first to make it the primary profile
  • Choose whichever system from the list the game will be played on
  • Sign in with the respective platforms' account information to link it to the Epic Games account

Players can link their Epic Games account to any system they decide to play Fall Guys on. Progress will be transferred among each of those systems without skipping a beat.

Everything players have on their main account will be usable on any other platform and vice versa. For example, players could main the game on PC but decide to take it on the go with their Nintendo Switch.

Any progress made on the PC version will be seen on the Switch, and any progress made on the Switch will be available on PC the next time players boots up the game.

Players will have full access to their level, all of their cosmetics, and their Season Pass by simply linking their accounts. That's all it takes to continue winning crowns in style on all available platforms.
