Mediatonic's Fall Guys is seemingly falling in line with other Epic Games titles like Fortnite and Rocket League. While these titles are free to play and offer microtransactions for players to purchase like cosmetics and seasonal passes, they all feature plenty of crossover content from other well known franchises. Everything from Star Wars, Marvel, Jurassic Park, Ghostbusters, and tons more have seen content and events arrive.
While not nearly as old as Rocket League or Fortnite, Fall Guys has already seen plenty of franchise crossover content arrive including Sonic the Hedgehog, primarily through different cosmetic outfits for the bean characters. It seems Mediatonic is pushing for bigger events though as Fall Guys just ended a big limited time challenge involving Microsoft's IP Halo, presenting players with challenges and rewards to unlock regardless of the platform being played on.
Now, Fall Guys fans can take part in a new limited time event running from July 7 to July 12 and centering on Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed franchise. Here are all of the challenges available to complete as well as the unlockable rewards tied to them.
Sweet Thieves Show
During the Abstergo's Challenge event, Fall Guys players will have a new show to pick from called Sweet Thieves. During this one round, 12 player show, 4 guardians attempt to protect the candy around the map and capture the 8 thieves attempting to steal it. Thieves can also walk to turn invisible to give themselves a small tactical advantage.
Guardians win when all thieves are caught or the time runs out, while the other team wins if they manage to steal all of the candy before the time runs out.
Fall Guys Abstergo's Challenge Tasks
With the return of Sweet Thieves, Abstergo's Challenge tasks are all centered around this show, similar to the Halo event and the Spartan's Showcase show. Players should then open the show selector and make sure that the Sweet Thieves is the only show enabled.
Thankfully, many of these challenges are not too difficult to pull off, so Fall Guys players should be earning Assassin's Creed content pretty quickly. Here is the full list of challenges, with each one giving players 100 tokens towards the full 1000 points.
- Carry candy for 30 seconds in Sweet Thieves!
- Carry candy for 75 seconds in Sweet Thieves!
- Press the button as a Thief in Sweet Thieves!
- Win Sweet Thieves! (10 times)
- Play as a Thief in Sweet Thieves! (Three times)
- Win as a Thief in Sweet Thieves!
- Play as a Guardian in Sweet Thieves!
- Win as a Guardian in Sweet Thieves!
- As a Guardian grab Thieves in Sweet Thieves! (Grab 5)
- As a Guardian grab Thieves in Sweet Thieves! (Grab 20)
The Guardian challenges are less intensive due to that team's lower number of players, which is why only 1 game is required instead of three for a thief. It's likely that players will be a thief more often.
Fall Guys Abstergo's Challenge Rewards
Completing challenges gives players tokens which are used to fill a rewards meter. New content is unlocked at specific milestones:
- Animus Trainee - Unlocked at 100 points, this is a Nickname that can be applied to the player banner.
- 200 Kudos - Unlocked at 300 points, this is an in game common resource players use to purchase items from the in-game shop.
- Apple of Eden - Unlocked at 500 points, this is a nameplate that can be applied to the player banner.
- Animus Synchronizing - Unlocked at 700 points, this is a pattern to change the look of the player character.
- Apple of Eden - Unlocked when all challenges are completed, this is a costume top based on the Assassin's Creed mythical item seen in many of Ubisoft's popular games in the franchise. For Fall Guys, this looks like a backpack.
For those who want more Assassin's Creed content, the in-game store is also offering even more cosmetic content, though it needs to be purchased instead of unlocked. Assassin's Creed Valhalla fans can pick up costumes for Eivor the Wolf-Kissed and Odin the All-Father in the shop for 1,200 Show-Bucks, Fall Guys' premium currency. There's also a bundle version for 2,000 Show-Bucks that also comes with additional content including a unique nameplate.
Fall Guys is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
