Three years after the reboot, Hexworks is ready to bring Axiom and Umbral again with Lords of the Fallen II. This time around, however, they are planning on bringing a far more brutal and sophisticated soulslike to every lamp-wielding player.
So, if you are excited to slay the monsters that lie in the darkest of shadows, here is everything you need to know about Lords of the Fallen II.
What is the release date for Lords of the Fallen II?
Lords of the Fallen II is set to be released in 2026. No exact date has been confirmed by Hexworks.
What platforms will Lords of the Fallen II release on?
Lords of the Fallen II will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (via the Epic Games Store).
What price is Lords of the Fallen II launching at?
No current information regarding Lords of the Fallen II’s price is available. Its predecessor, however, launched at $59.99, so the sequel could match that or be priced at $69.99, the current industry standard.
How does Lords of the Fallen II’s gameplay work?
Just like the first game, Lords of the Fallen II is a soulslike. As such, you can expect fast-paced battles in which your character will strike the enemy (with both ranged and melee weapons, and sorcery), only to be forced to dodge or even block incoming attacks. Build-crafting will be essential, allowing players to better customize their character to fit their playstyle.
Based on the game’s gameplay trailer, you can expect brutal matches against horrifyingly crafted foes. This is enhanced by the executions, which will bring up the violence to 11, something that will only go further beyond when faced against the game’s bosses, which remains the “heart of the experience.”
What is the plot and setting of Lords of the Fallen II?
Lords of the Fallen II takes place a century after the events of Lords of the Fallen. The Umbral calamity has spread, and new horrors are coming into the world from the shadows.
With the Umbral Lamp, which makes its return, the player will be able to step foot into the realm of shadows to combat the nightmares within.
Will Lords of the Fallen II feature multiplayer?
Just like Lords of the Fallen, the sequel is set to feature 2-player online co-op, all with shared progression and Free Friend’s Pass (meaning only one bought copy is necessary).
