It’s been nearly 10 years since we’ve last been treated to a Lords of the Fallen game with the last arriving for PC, PS4 and Xbox One in 2014.

Despite being a sequel, the new Lords of the Fallen shares the same name as its predecessor but takes place about 1000 years after its events. So while it is a sequel, I suppose it can also be considered to be somewhat of a reboot too.

Developers Hexworks has released 20 minutes of new gameplay footage for Lords of the Fallen which not only features plenty of its gruelling combat, but also seamless co-op functionality as well as added developer commentary.

“Taking place in a vast, semi-open world, the new video showcases just a few of the many diverse and harrowing environments players will journey through in their epic quest to overthrow Adyr, the demon God” reads the press release. “With each major area interconnected with at least two others, the order in which players venture through these lands is largely up to them. However, they’ll not only need to survive one world in this extensive RPG experience but two, thanks to the game’s unique dual realm mechanic.”

“The team at Hexworks is thrilled to finally share an extended gameplay preview and reveal numerous new details of our dark fantasy action RPG,” said Saul Gascon, Head of Studio at HEXWORKS. “We have passionately carved our own path in this increasingly popular genre, and we are particularly excited to see how players will approach the game’s unique dual-world mechanic when it releases this October.”

Lords of the Fallen will be released on 13 October 2023 for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
