Initially launched in October 2023, Lords of the Fallen faced criticism for its poor performance and numerous issues. While it provided a thrilling 35-hour adventure for dedicated fans of the Souls series, many players struggled to overlook its imperfections.

Since its release, CI Games has proactively addressed these concerns by rolling out multiple updates, with one notable enhancement labeled as a ‘2.0’ version. This rebranding of the game merely two years post-launch underscores the developers’ acknowledgment of prior shortcomings and their commitment to improvement. Notably, gaming journalist De Meo praised this update as a “massive improvement”earlier this year.

The surge in player numbers can also be attributed to the game’s inclusion in the Xbox Game Pass last year. This strategic move likely helped many players access the title through the subscription service, rather than making independent purchases, explaining the milestone in player numbers rather than sales figures.

For fans who appreciated Lords of the Fallen, there’s exciting news on the horizon. CI Games announced plans for a sequel to the 2023 title, named Lords of the Fallen 2, which is slated to be released in 2026. It will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, although a specific release date has yet to be disclosed.

With ongoing improvements and a sequel in production, the future looks promising for fans of the series.
