Amidst all this, the developers of the game have started something of a bidding war among various brands for an in-game costume. The money raised from this will go to Special Effects, a UK based charity organization that aims at ‘leveling the playing field for gamers with physical disabilities.’
As of now, a lot of personalities and brands have participated in this bidding war, including MrBeast, Bisect Hosting, G2, and many others.

The bidding war of Fall Guys has some pretty impressive competitors
MrBeast is known for his crazy antics, which often involves a lot of money. You surely remember the time he brought his friends together to play a game of Rocket League, with real cars. Well, he made quite an entrance into the bidding war.
I raise the bid to $100,000.
$40,000.01 & the best design submission you'll receive.
Everyone just pack it up. This man has no limits to what he will do for the sake of just doing it.
Even the popular YouTuber LazarBeam commented on how crazy MrBeast can get.
I was tempted bidding on the 40k but you just went and fucked all that up didn’t you
But currently, the bid has is well beyond what MrBeast started with.
Bisect Hosting briefly stood as the highest bidder with a whopping $120,000 bid. Bisect provides server hosting services to games like Minecraft. They planned on making a Minecraft-themed outfit for Fall Guys.
However, G2 Esports outbid them soon after.
New highest bidder! We're back with @BisectHosting! $120,000 They're hoping to hook up a Minecraft Collab with the skin, but if it doesn't pan out, something vaguely blocky and non-copyright infringing lol Context: x.com/FallGuysGame/s…
We bid $120,000 to get a blocky themed costume in Fall Guys! If we get permission from @Mojang @Microsoft @Xbox we'll totally make it Minecraft themed! If we lose, the three big boys above should get involved in the contest. Hey, @Notch think you can help us spread the word?
The eSports organization replaced Bisect as the highest bidder with a bid of $130,003. The outfit they are going for is a physical version of the G2 logo. To be honest, it does look pretty slick.
We raise the bid to $130,003 for this bad boy.

In addition to this, Fall Guys posted a tweet about what might follow once the bidding war concludes.
Shout out to all the community managers out there that are having really awkward meetings today with their higher-ups about why they should put their logo on a bean in a video game for $130k lol
This is all a pretty crazy affair, but in the end, it is for a noble cause. We can presume that the winning bid will bring quite a generous amount to the table. And it will greatly help the cause that Special Effect is fighting for.
