The Nightmare Before Christmasis a stop motion film released in 1993, being a certified Disney cult classic for many Disney fans. Part of it is due to the movie encompassing both a Halloween and Christmas spirit to it, even though both holidays are so much different from each other. Still the character designs, charm, and themes are carried throughout the film, with the protagonist Jack Skellington being one of the most iconic and memorable. This makes him one of the perfect characters to base a costume off of forFall Guys.
The trailer showed off the purchasable costumes that take inspiration from the movie’s setting and characters, showing off the beans dressed in costumes inspired by Jack Skellington, Sally, and the Mayor of Halloweentown. There will also be a costume based on Jack donning Santa’s outfit, complete with a beard and hat. Not only that,Fall Guyswill be receiving a festive makeover, with the game’s aesthetics taking on a more wintery appearance, complete with crumbling ice tiles and snowfall.
