Lords of the Fallen, also known as The Lords of the Fallen, is a new title in the series of the same name. The first game was released for PS4 in 2014 and evolved some mechanics from the soulsborne games to create its own identity. This second title promises to revamp the series but looks like it’s been heavily influenced by FromSoftware’s Elden Ring.
The original Lords of the Fallen differentiated itself from other soulslikes by introducing a risk vs. reward system to the tried and true bonfire checkpoints. Players could choose to hold onto their XP and multiply it if they avoided checkpoints but risked a greater setback upon death by doing so. The latest title seems as though it will take a similar approach in evolving what inspired it.

What is the Release Date for Lords of the Fallen?
Lords of the Fallen will be released on October 13, 2023. Aside from the name change, the game hasn’t been delayed and has always targeted a 2023 release date. No one is quite sure why the ‘The’ was dropped from the original name, but it seems as though the vision for the game might have changed at some point in development.
Lords of the Fallen Price & Pre-order Editions
There are three editions of Lords of the Fallen that fans can pre-order. The standard edition costs $70/£54.99, and the Digital Deluxe Edition costs $80/£64.99. Both of these can be purchased from digital storefronts such as the PlayStation Store. While the standard version only includes the base game, the Digital Deluxe Edition includes the Dark Crusader Starting Class, Weapon, and Armor Set, a 100-page digital artbook, the digital soundtrack, and a 3D model viewer.
Finally, there’s the Collectors Edition, which costs $250/£200. This edition of the game comes with everything the Digital Deluxe Edition has, plus it packs in a physical version of the artbook, a double-sided poster, art cards, in-game perks, armor tincts, a steelbook case, a physical copy of the game, and a metal display case with LED light for the 10-inch hand-painted figurine in the box. We’ve only been able to find this version at UK retailer GAME, though there is likely a US retailer out there selling it too.
All pre-orders for the game, digital or physical, will grant fans exclusive bronze, silver, and gold armor tincts and three HP, MP, and XP items in-game.
What Platforms Will Lords of the Fallen be Released for?
Lords of the Fallen will be released for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. At the time of writing, no versions are planned for last-generation consoles or Nintendo Switch. It’s also currently unknown if the game will be Steam Deck compatible.
Will Lords of the Fallen Have Multiple Armor Sets?
Yes, there’s a huge variety of armor sets in Lords of the Fallen. In the first extended gameplay showcase, fans were shown a few sets from standard human armor to pagan magic-wielding sets that forgo armor to boost magical prowess.
Players will be able to explore and collect pieces of each set and combine them in any way they want. This opens up the possibility for players to craft whatever build they want. For example, one player can make a strong melee build, another a sneaky ranged build, and one more still a magic caster with the ability to destroy swathes of enemies with a single hand gesture.
Is Lords of the Fallen Multiplayer?
Yes, Lords of the Fallen has multiplayer functionality so that players can summon friends or randoms into their game. The system works similarly to how it does in Dark Souls or Elden Ring. Players first need to visit a Vestige, which is like a bonfire in Dark Souls. Once there, they can summon another player and pick between a friend or a random other player in the game. They can also open themselves up to join others if that’s what they want to do. There don’t appear to be any limitations on multiplayer, so other players will remain by the host of a game for the duration of their life.
Is Lords of the Fallen a Remake or New Game?
CI Games has confirmed that Lords of the Fallen 2023 is a complete reboot for the franchise. While the company recognizes the games that laid the foundations for the latest entry, this is a new beginning for the series. This doesn’t mean that elements from past games won’t be pulled through as easter eggs, but players should expect this to be a fresh start rather than another entry in an older series.
