Soulslike Lords of the Fallen shifts one million copies
The Soulslike or Soulsborne genre can feel a little overcrowded as publishers and developers try to recreate that FromSoftware magic, but few ever succeed.
However, perhaps one game that has at the very least bottled some of that magic is Lords of the Fallen developed by HEXWORKS. Following its first 10 days of launch, Lords of the Fallen has sold an impressive one million units across all available platforms.
“Set across the dark-fantasy land of Mournstead, Lords of the Fallen features a unique dual-realm mechanic that allows players to seamlessly transition between the brutal and unforgiving world of the living and the nightmarish world of the dead, as they battle powerful monsters and demons in a holy crusade to overcome a once-vanquished god,” reads the official press release.
What’s more, HEXWORKS has also released a post-launch patch which not only addresses reported bugs and improves stability, but also includes an “overhauled” New Game Plus as well as crossplay between consoles. Crossplay across all platforms will be “reactivated” on 26 October.
Lords of the Fallen is out now on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
