CI Video games has revealed that Lords of the Fallen 2 is due someday in 2026, and never solely that – it’s going to be an Epic Video games Retailer unique when it launches on PC.
In keeping with a binding time period sheet signed between CI and Epic, the upcoming Lords of the Fallen sequel (which, in line with previous kind, will in all probability even be known as Lords of the Fallen) is focusing on a 2026 launch window.
It would not sound like the sport shall be coming to Steam in any respect, both. The time period settlement says that Epic has “unique worldwide distribution rights” on PC for “your complete product life cycle”, so it seems to be such as you will not be enjoying Lords of the Fallen 2-slash-3 on Steam.
The sport will nonetheless be launched on PS5 and Xbox Sequence X|S, although, and CI Video games is retaining publishing rights, so Lords of the Fallen 2 will not be printed by Epic.

Mission 3 is not CI Video games’ solely title within the pipeline, although; the studio can also be working alongside inner outfit Underdog on Mission Survive, though particulars are scant about that sport proper now.
When you did not play Lords of the Fallen, it is a reboot-slash-sequel-slash-reimagining of 2014’s sport of the identical title. Some components recur between the video games, however you will not must have performed the 2014 outing to grasp this one.
Lords of the Fallen is a Soulslike that duties you with touring the land of Mournstead with the intention to stop the revival of the darkish god Adyr. Alongside the way in which, you’ll be able to anticipate tons of fallen knights to slaughter, in addition to large bosses to take down and sprawling ranges to discover.
You’ll be able to seize Lords of the Fallen proper now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Sequence X|S. Take a look at my evaluation right here to seek out out whether or not it’s best to decide it up or not.
