Developer/publisher CI Games brings bloody bonebreaking action for RPG fans with the new gameplay trailer for it soulslike action-RPG Lords of the Fallen II, which is currently in active development for PC via the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series. The hard-hitting new trailer, featuring a cover of “It’s a Sin” by Ghost, illustrates the game’s brutal soulslike combat against an array of fearsome, towering creatures amid an expansive world characterized by its trademark dual realms.
Lords of the Fallen II is set in a human realm besieged by eons of malevolent gods, visceral magic, and unflinching defenders. 1,000 years after the fall of the dark god Adyr, a lone kingdom stands against the forces of the dead realm known as Umbral and its eldritch master.
This eagerly awaited sequel is bolder, braver, and bloodier. As the Lampbearer, players can rend enemies limb from limb with a brand new dismemberment feature and silence them forever with all-new executions in a fast and fluid combat system. An even greater wealth of enemy types and truly jaw-dropping boss battles will test even the strongest in solo play or best-in-class shared progression co-op and optional PvP multiplayer. Witness a first look at three fearsome bosses in this first gameplay reveal, including the metal-encased Heartroot Warden and his chain-wrapped greatsword, the bewinged Koydreth striking from his rune-etched mirror, and the colossal dragon Lingao the Souring Storm harnessing the power of wind and lightning.
“We are excited to share this first gameplay look for Lords of the Fallen II at the TGAs,” said Game Director, James Lowe. “Designed and developed in accordance with our players-first philosophy, we look forward to seeing the community’s reaction to the faster and more brutal combat, the significantly greater enemy variety, and the more spectacular boss battle showdowns. And this is just the beginning…”
CI Games also took the opportunity to announce a final major update for the original Lords of the Fallen. Version 2.5 introduces extensive reworks to enemy and boss behavior across both Legacy and the all-new Veteran Mode, and more. “We’ve been actively listening and engaging with our community since launch,” says CI Games CEO Marek Tyminski. “This is exactly what they’ve been asking for and we’re delighted to provide it free for all owners – the final major update and the ultimate representation of our vision for Lords of the Fallen.”
