Fall Guys developer Mediatonic officially revealed a new obstacle called Thicc Bonkus, a suspended roller with spikes protruding from it. Thicc Bonkus is the second new obstacle that will be added to the game after the Big Yeetus hammer, which was introduced last month. Funnily enough, Thicc Bonkus was revealed a few weeks ago and the developer asked its Twitter followers to help with naming the obstacle. Out of the all the funny shortlisted names shared by fans, it appears that Mediatonic decided to go with Thicc Bonkus.
I'm very pleased to announce the latest character in the Fall Guys Cinematic Universe...

However, unlike the Big Yeetus, Thicc Bonkus won't be appearing randomly in your games until the launch of Season 2. Fortunately, fans won't have to wait long to jump over the new obstacle, as the new season is releasing on October 8.
Fall Guys Season 2 will feature a medieval-theme complete with castle-like stages and medieval costumes. Mediatonic has teased some contents of what fans can expect in Season 2 and from what we have seen, the season looks plenty entertaining.
Released back in August, Fall Guys quickly became a hit thanks to the game's free availability for PS Plus members. The game broke the record of being the most downloaded PS Plus game of all time. It's been two months since Fall Guys released and now Mediatonic is working to offer a brand-new season, new levels, and cute cosmetics.
Earlier in September, Mediatonic also held a charity event called Battle of the Brands. The charity event was won by Mr. Beast, Ninja, Aimlab, and G2 Esports, who donated a whopping $1,000,000 for Special Effect, an organization that helps in making gaming accessible to specially-abled gamers.
Fall Guys Ultimate Knockout is available on PC and PS4. Although fans are hoping for the game to arrive on Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Mobile devices, there has been no official word from Mediatonic on this topic.
