Knight Fever could top Slime Climb as my favorite racing level in Fall Guys

Super Mario 3D All-Stars put me in the mood for punishment

Knight Fever is one of the new Season 2 levels lined up for Fall Guys. It’s a meat-grinder of a race with swinging axes, rolling spike-covered walkways, and drawbridges that have a mind of their own.

It’s in the spirit of my favorite Fall Guys levels – Dizzy Heights, The Whirlygig, and the all-time cruel Slime Climb – so I hope to see it pop up a bunch. While other game types tend to have downtime once you learn the ropes, the thrill of hoofing it with a floppy horde hasn’t lost its initial excitement.

The little victories matter too. If you take first place in a race, regardless of how poorly you fare in future rounds, you’re gonna feel great in that moment. Surviving as a group is nice, but it just isn’t the same.

Along with other new levels, Knight Fever will begin appearing in Fall Guys on October 8.
