CI Games is proud to officially reveal Lords of the Fallen II, the next chapter in the acclaimed dark fantasy franchise, during Opening Night Live at Gamescom. The world premiere trailer unveiled a brutal new vision for the genre-defining action-RPG, showcasing a blood-soaked evolution of everything fans loved, and demanded more of.
Set 100 years after Lords of the Fallen (2023), Lords of the Fallen II is a standalone sequel built in Unreal Engine 5, featuring two fully explorable worlds, including a deadlier, expanded Umbral realm. Developed in direct response to community feedback, and embracing its unapologetically mature experience with brutal executions and extreme gore, this is dark fantasy without compromise.
“After selling over 2 million units and welcoming over 5.5 million Lampbearers into Lords of the Fallen, it’s clear our comeback was community-powered,” said Marek Tyminski, CEO of CI Games. “With Lords of the Fallen II, we’re going further. In 2024 we proudly announced our deep commitment to be a player-first studio. The V2.0 update was our promise in action: listen, respond, and deliver. This sequel is built on that same foundation.”
These are the first confirmed features. More reveals in the months ahead:
DUAL WORLDS:
- Explore two fully explorable parallel realms, including a deadlier, expanded Umbral.
FULL CO-OP PROGRESSION:
- Full shared campaign progression in online co-op from day one.
PLAYER-FIRST DESIGN:
- Developed in direct response to community feedback, including optional PvP and custom game modifiers.
VISCERAL COMBAT:
- Brutal executions, extreme gore, and an unapologetically mature-rated experience.
UNREAL ENGINE 5:
- Lords of the Fallen’s signature visual style and tight gameplay upgraded for the next-generation.
With over 10 million players and two major releases, Lords of the Fallen has earned its place as a genre-defining Soulslike. Named “Best Soulslike of 2023” by Fextralife and praised for its V2.0 overhaul earlier this year, the franchise now returns with its clearest vision yet.

For those unable to attend, a sweepstakes will offer a one-of-a-kind canvas painted by Maxime Taccardi of The Scion, painted in the artist’s own blood – a visceral tribute to the unapologetic gore awaiting players in Lords of the Fallen II. Earlier this week Geoff Keighley’s teaser post on X, revealed the blood soaked center piece of Lords of the Fallen 2’s logo, also made by Maxime Taccardi.
