The dark fantasy action RPG The Lords of the Fall has been unveiled during the Gamescom 2022 opening night live with Geoff Keighley. Developed by HEXWORKS, it is a reboot to the 2014 hit game Lords of the Fallen that is making its way to PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, powered by Unreal Engine 5.
Taking place more than a thousand years after the events of the first game, The Lords of the Fallen introduces an all-new adventure in a vast, interconnected world, more than five times larger than the original game. An expansive RPG experience – filled with NPC quests, compelling characters, and rich narrative – players will need to create their own hero before tackling the immersive single player campaign. They will also have the option to invite a second player to join their adventure in uninterrupted online co-op – a new feature for the franchise.
Players can look forward to a full gameplay reveal of The Lords of the Fallen later this year.
“The Lords of the Fallen is the spiritual successor fans of the original title have always wanted,” said Cezar Virtosu, Creative Director. “The game is significantly larger, with a vast, interconnected dual world split between the realms of the living and dead, that players can explore alone or with friends. It’s darker and more challenging, with faster soulslike combat, stronger thematic, richer narrative, deeper RPG systems, and more immersive storytelling.”
