Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockdown is arguably one of the most peculiar games out there right now. And that is precisely the reason why it has grown to be so popular. It is basically a battle-royale style game, where the player has to finish a series of minigames and the last player standing wins the game. It is like a race with multiple levels, quite fun to play. Despite the cartoonish graphics, it may get a bit intense at times. But still, there are players who feel the need to employ cheating to win this game.

The most popular form of cheating in the game is the speed hack. Since the game is essentially an obstacle race, this gives them a huge advantage over others. In addition to this, hackers are also making it so that they can float past obstacles or are able to teleport throughout the map.

Seeing people cheat in a game like Fall Guys speaks volumes about the absence of the competitive integrity among a section of players in almost any eSport. Fortunately, Mediatonic, the developing firm of the game has promised that they will be looking into the issue of this wave of hackers in the game although it has only been a week since its release.
