Final Fantasy XIV has held a lot of collaborations with other games. In addition to other Final Fantasy titles like FFXI, FFXII, FFXIII, FFXV, and Final Fantasy Tactics, Creative Business Unit III has run collaboration events with Yo-kai Watch, Monster Hunter World, Dragon Quest X, and Nier: Automata. So the latest collaboration might not come as too much of a surprise: Fall Guys.
To participate, a character needs to reach level 15 and complete the Manderville Gold Saucer access quest "It Could Happen To You". Then inside the Gold Saucer, complete the quest "Just Crowning Around". To engage in the Fall Guys event, reading the patch notes helps.
How to Participate
Speak with the Blunderville registrar to participate in a show.
To enter Blunderville Square, you may speak with Wy (X:6.1 Y:7.4) or the Blunderville attendant (X:5.9 Y:6.3).
Party Registration
The party leader must speak with the Blunderville registrar to join the show with their currently formed party. Parties can be registered regardless of size. Cross-world parties are also permitted.
Party members other than the party leader are not required to be in the Blunderville Square at the time of registration.
Alliance Registration
The alliance leader must speak with the Blunderville registrar to join the show with their currently formed alliance. You must have a full alliance of 24 players to participate.
Alliance members other than the alliance leader are not required to be in the Blunderville Square at the time of registration.
* Rankings for each stage are calculated based on personal progress rather than the entire party or alliance.
That's right, the Fall Guys collaboration is a social event. I imagine I'll see a lot of parties or events in my free company's Discord over the next two months.
Let the Show Begin
Players who have registered for a show will be sent to wait in Lobbyville. The show will begin when 24 challengers have gathered.
If a set amount of time has passed before 24 challengers have gathered, however, the show will begin automatically.
* Rewards will be adjusted based on the number of challengers in each show.
How to Play
- Each show will have three stages in total. Players must complete the objective of each stage to qualify for the next round.
- Challengers who qualify for the next stage will remain in spectator mode until the next round begins.
- Challengers who have been eliminated may remain in spectator mode until the end of the show.
* If you wish to leave spectator mode, you may do so at any time by selecting the Leave button from the Blunderville menu.
Rewards
MGF, or Manderville Gold Saucer Fame, is awarded to all Blunderville challengers after a show has concluded. MGF is calculated based on your final rank in the show. MGF can be exchanged for rewards by speaking with the MGF trader.
* The MGF trader will also confirm your total MGF.
The rewards one can purchase with MGF are pretty nice. In addition to the almost mandatory outfit, I saw a mount, 2 minions, an orchestrion roll, 3(!!) framing kits, scrolls that add 15 minutes to meal durations (not stackable with FC effects) for 2 hours, and Gold Saucer Aetheryte Tickets to avoid taking the airship to the Gold Saucer. Oh, and enough furniture to turn an FC house into a replica Fall Guys arena.
This is a collaboration event, so only runs until the end of 2023. But I imagine Blunderville will return periodically, especially if received well by players.
