Lords of the Fallen released last year as a rebirth of sorts for the early 8th-gen souls-like from 2014. This latest iteration appears to have been successful enough, with publisher CI Games confirming a sequel is coming in 2026 – alongside announcing some of the improvements planned for it.

As part of CI Games’ ‘H1 2024 Strategy Update and Product Roadmap’, the publisher shared their ‘focused plan’ for the near future, with the primary project currently in the works being the previously-announced sequel to Lords of the Fallen – planned to launch some time in 2026.

According to the report, Lords of the Fallen 2 has now entered full production at studio Hexworks, with marketing and more set to begin some time next year.

Taking a slightly different strategy to the prior two titles, Lords of the Fallen 2 is being developed with “Increased appeal and accessibility to both existing and wider audiences” in mind.

Additionally, other noted enhancements include “Gameplay improvements; increased game mode optionality, more commercial art style and narrative, elevated production values.”

Lords of the Fallen (2023) was already a big step up from Lords of the Fallen (2014), and so it will be interesting to see what the team at Hexworks wind up doing with the sequel.
