Lords of the Fallen is getting more free content as developer Hexworks and publisher CI Games have revealed a roadmap of incoming updates.
Following the success of its Halloween-themed Season of the Bleak event, Hexworks confirmed it will release two similar updates containing fresh content by the end of 2023. It didn’t offer a release window for these events, nor what they would be centred around, but as the previous one was Halloween-focused, the follow-ups will perhaps be themed around another holiday like Christmas.
The roadmap, which can be seen below, shows fairly clearly what the other content drops will be. Players can expect multiple new questlines to be added by the end of 2023, alongside unique armour sets and weapons, 12 new spells, new finisher attacks, and “a whole host of community requested features”. This includes a New Game Plus modifier system that Hexworks called “a first for the genre”.
“At Hexworks, we’re incredibly proud of the open relationship we’re fostering with our community,” said studio head Saül Gascon. “We are actively listening to their constructive feedback and working diligently to deliver what we believe, collectively, will elevate Lords of the Fallen even further. Every addition to the game is a labour of love, as we strive to push both its and the genre’s boundaries.”
Lords of the Fallen, a reboot/sequel to the 2014 Souls-like of the same name, launched in October to strong critical and commercial reception, selling one million copies in its first 10 days on sale.
In our 8/10 review, IGN said: “Lords of the Fallen is an awesome Souls-like with a fantastic dual-realities premise, even when performance shortcomings and wimpy bosses crash the party.”
