'Human: Fall Flat' (ALL) Brings 8-player Multiplayer To Consoles - Trailer

Human: Fall Flat is a quirky, open-ended, physics-based, third-person puzzle and exploration game set in surreal, floating dreamscapes.

Your goal is to escape the dreams of falling by solving puzzles with nothing but your wits and physics.

Human Fall Flat is a surreal physics puzzle game in which players are tasked with helping Bob (a builder – but not *that* one) escape his surreal dreamscapes. The world of Bob’s dreams are built on his daily experiences, hopes, fears and memories, crafted into nightmarish puzzles by the nefarious dream maker.

At its heart, it’s a game which will make you laugh. Bob is a human. No hero, no super powers. Bob’s journey is as random as it is surreal – with no fixed solutions to the obstacles he must overcome. Taking the form of open-ended sandbox levels in which players can experiment with solutions, Bob must traverse this beautiful yet deadly world in a bid to understand what’s powering his dreams.


Physics-based puzzler Human: Fall Flat is getting 8-player online multiplayer as a free update for PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch on August 28th.

This multiplayer mode debuted on Steam last October, where it became a big hit with the PC crowd. Curve Digital has hired the award-winning UK developer Sumo Digital to create the console multiplayer addition to the acclaimed hit Human: Fall Flat. The update allows players to create their own lobbies and invite up to seven friends to flounder their way through the campaign with them, as the gaggle of clumsy Bobs wobble about surreal environments full of physics-based puzzles.

Human: Fall Flat has always been a blast to play by yourself, but bringing your friends into the mix is a real hoot,” said developer Tomas Sakalauskas. “You haven’t experienced all that Human: Fall Flat has to offer until you’ve seen seven of your mates awkwardly grope each other, trying to climb a rope. There’s nothing quite like it.”

Players control Bob’s basic movement, but operate his arms independently, making his journey haphazard, hilarious and fraught with danger. Bob can pull stuff. He can push stuff. He can kick stuff. He can carry stuff. He can climb stuff. He can break stuff. And he can use stuff on other stuff to make other stuff happen.

Along the way, players will learn more about the human condition – and maybe something about themselves, too.

Will you try to open that mysterious door, or would you rather see how far you can throw a speaker set out that window?

Human: Fall Flat is currently available on Switch, PS4, Xbox One and PC.
