Knockout is a core playlist mode in Fall Guys.
It is a permanent game added as of the Fall Forever Update and as one of the new core games in the game.
This game works similar to Solos, but with a roundpool of 40 levels, with the levels being split between classic Unity and official Creative levels. Community-created levels used to also be included, however, this changed with the introduction of Creator Spotlight in the November '24 Update. Creative levels that are currently not in Knockout will still be available to play in Custom Games. Knockout will also be constantly and significantly refreshed on a regular basis (usually on every update) in the form of Knockout/Rotations, allowing players to play most of the levels in the game.

Description[ | ]
Knockout will consist of only 4 rounds in total (can vary in rare occasions), with 3 rounds being Opener and Filler levels, and a Final level for the fourth round. Openers and Fillers can vary from being a mix of COURSE, SURVIVAL, LOGIC and/or POINTS levels. Finals can only be FINAL, which is what usually ends the game with one player remaining, except for very rare cases (such as a survival level eliminating all but one player).
List of Levels[ | ]
This is the list of levels featured in Knockout, with the roundpool being refreshed periodically. The following list is the eighth rotation of Knockout.
FTUE/Tutorial Version[ | ]
Two Knockout games in the Game Selector, with the one on the left having an exclamation mark, being the First-Time User Experience version.
Knockout has a separate version that only shows up in the Game Selector for new players who haven't played Fall Guys before, this version is very different from the original, and only contains 4 rounds that will always go in the same order. Once a new player finishes their First-Time User Experience Knockout game, it can never be played again and will disappear from the Game Selector. Weirdly enough, both Knockout Versions will appear in the Game Selector for new players.
Here's also the list of 4 rounds that will appear in this version.
| Round | Type | |
|---|---|---|
| Welcome to Fall Guys! | COURSE | |
| Digital Highway | COURSE | |
| Treetop Rollers | COURSE | |
| Snowball Survival | FINAL | |

- No more community-made creative levels are featured within Knockout, they will instead be in the new Creator Spotlight show.
- The show icon from the July '24 Update became the new show icon, being the first one to be re-used in Knockout.
