The next Lords of the Fallen game launches in 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S, publisher CI Games has announced.
The Polish company confirmed it had signed a publishing deal with Fortnite maker Epic Games for the PC version of the game, which does not yet have an official title. However, the rights to the game and the series, as well as publishing rights on all non-PC platforms, remains with CI Games.
Lords of the Fallen was developed by Hexworks for release in 2023 and went on to sell 1.3 million copies as of the end of the year, a result Marek Tyminski, CEO of CI Games, recently called “solid.”
“From its release to December 31 last year, Lords of the Fallen's sales totaled approximately 1.3 million units,” Tyminski said. “This is a solid result, which allows us to plan further development of the brand. Now, our aim is to ensure its next installments attract even more players, partly through refined and improved game design, and partly thanks to the increasing popularity of this IP.”
IGN’s Lords of the Fallen review returned an 8/10. We said: “Lords of the Fallen is an awesome soulslike with a fantastic dual-realities premise, even when performance shortcomings and wimpy bosses crash the party.”
CI Games let go of 10% of staff across the entire company in January. Then, in May, it cut 30 more members of staff. Speaking to GI.biz, CI Games said this would be the "final targeted round of redundancies" on its way to reaching "maximum efficiency in delivery strategic priorities going forward." Hexworks was said to be unaffected by the round of layoffs.
