Fall Guys Vs. Stumble Guys: Differences
Platforms
A key difference between Fall Guys and Stumble Guys is what platforms they are available on. Fall Guys is available on all consoles: PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch — plus PC. Meanwhile, Stumble Guys is only available on PC and Mobile, with the large majority of the playerbase using Mobile.
Match Length
Matches of Stumble Guys are quick and easy, while Fall Guys matches can feel drawn out in comparison. Stumble Guys features near-instant load times, and with only 32 players in a lobby, games go way faster. Fall Guys, on the other hand, typically sets 60 players against one another and wastes a lot of time between rounds cycling through loading screens and reward screens.
Game Modes
Overall, Fall Guys is more developed than Stumble Guys, offering a far wider range of game modes and limited-time events.
What Stumble Guys does offer that Fall Guys does not are in-game tournaments. This competitive game mode lets you test your skills against talented competition with huge prizes on the line.
Graphics
Since Stumble Guys is primarily a Mobile game, its graphics are clearly inferior to Fall Guys. Stumble Guys' graphics aren't necessarily per se, Fall Guys is simply more polished with more diverse settings for their stages.
Fall Guys was first, but Stumble Guys is a formidable competitor in the fight for best platformer battle royale. Each title has its pros and cons, but as far as which game is better, that's in the eye of the beholder.
One thing Stumble Guys certainly doesn't have is Fall Guys Master Chief.
