Summary
AFall Guysplayer discovered a funny glitch that turned their Bean into in-game currency. Known for its wacky battle royale-style gameplay,Fall Guysbecame one of the most popular party games during the pandemic lockdowns, and still has a relatively steady playerbase after becoming free on Epic and other platforms.
Fall Guys' chaotic obstacle courses have been the source of many clips showing Beans getting eliminated in the silliest ways, like accidentally falling off the platform and getting catapulted by traps. With the sheer size and activity of eachFall Guysmatch, it’s not surprising to see some glitches, which could be either game-breaking or just plain funny for players.
Reddit user POKENERDYT recently encountered a glitch that transformed their Bean into a Show Buck, which is the in-game currency that can be used to purchase season passes and items in the shop. They explained that they triggered the glitch by going to the store and selecting Show Buck purchases without buying them, and went back to the game’s lobby to find their Bean fully transformed. DespiteFall Guys' wide variety of skins, it doesn’t have a Show Buck skin, so this was definitely a fun glitch.
In the comments, manyFall Guysfans thought the bug was funny, while also requesting developer Mediatonic to make a permanent Show Buck skin. Meanwhile, POKENERDYT also confirmed that the Show Buck skin glitch didn’t carry over to their game, which meant that this was purely a lobby bug.

After almost four years,Fall Guyscontinues to bring creative skins and crossovers to other popular franchises, likeFinal FantasyandNier Automata.Fall Guysrecently teased a Marvel crossover, showing the silhouettes of Beans as the Incredible Hulk, Captain America, and Thor. There were also rumors thatFall GuysandFortnitewould have a crossover very soon, with leaks showingFortniteavatars with Bean-inspired cosmetics.

It’s also sometimes used in content creator tournaments, where thousands of viewers tune in to cheer on their favorite streamers to finishFall Guysrounds. Meanwhile, other companies are reportedly creatingFall Guys-inspired games, like therumoredSonic the Hedgehogspin-off calledSonic Rumble, which shows how Mediatonic’s title created a new standard for the battle royale genre.
