Hexworks and CI Games have announced that their ambitious Souls-like ARPG, Lords of the Fallen, has sold over a million copies. The game launched a mere ten days ago, averaging 100,000 copies sold per day across several platforms, including PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. That’s pretty impressive by anyone’s metric.
In a new press announcement, CI Games CEO Marek Tyminski wrote, “Lords of the Fallen is the most important and ambitious game we’ve developed in our 20-year history and the first in our new planned AAA pipeline of games in the years ahead. To see this fresh and innovative take on the action RPG achieve one million sales in just ten days has been humbling for everybody at Hexworks and CI Games.”
Resting on laurels isn’t in the developers’ bag either. Over the 10-days since launch, the dev team has pushed out several patches and hotfixes that address performance, the imminent reactivation of crossplay between consoles and PCs, and have even added new features, including New Game Plus mode and more.
FEATURES
- Explore a Vast, Interconnected World: Journey across two expansive, parallel worlds in your epic quest to overthrow Adyr. While the living realm presents its own brutal challenges, untold terrors lurk in the nightmarish realm of the dead.
- Define Your Own Legend: Fully customize your character’s appearance from a wide array of visual options before selecting one of nine character classes. Whichever starting path you take, develop your character to your own playstyle by upgrading stats, weapons, armor, and spells.
- Master Fast, Challenging Fluid Tactical Combat: Only those who master deep, tactical combat can hope to survive. Choose from 100s of uniquely brutal weapons, or forgo metal for magic with devastating attacks of the arcane.
- Unite or Fight in Online Multiplayer: Experience the expansive, single-player campaign alone, or invite a second player to join your adventure in uninterrupted, online co-op. But be warned – heroes from other realms can and will invade.
- Wield a Device of Ungodly Power: Your lantern possesses the ungodly power to cross between worlds. Use this dark art to reach forgotten places, unearth fabled treasures, and even manipulate the very soul of your foe.
- Rise from Death: Fall in the world of the living, and rise again… in the world of the dead. You now have one final chance to return to your living state, as all manner of hellish creature descends upon you.
