CI Games celebrates its dark fantasy action-RPG officially breaking even, as the franchise builds momentum ahead of the sequel launch
CI Games today announced that its dark fantasy action-RPG, Lords of the Fallen (2023), has sold over 2.5 million copies worldwide, officially breaking even at the end of February on a total budget of 298 million Polish złoty ($80.45 million, based on current exchange rates), including development and marketing.
Following more than 70 post-launch updates, the game surpassed 2 million units sold in August 2025. This momentum was further strengthened by the release of Version 2.5 in December 2025 — the final major update — which introduced a new Veteran Mode and enhanced enemy encounters across the entire game, delivering a more demanding and refined experience.
“We’d like to thank our loyal community for their continued support,” said Marek Tyminski, CEO and Co-Founder of CI Games. “Reaching break-even is a significant milestone, ensuring financial stability alongside the recent capital raise, but we know there’s more to achieve. The lessons learned and community feedback gathered over the past 2.5 years have been invaluable, and they continue to guide the development of Lords of the Fallen II.”
“Reaching break-even is a significant achievement for an ambitious project like Lords of the Fallen, especially in a challenging market. It validates the passion and hard work of our team, as well as the unwavering support from our community. While this brings financial stability and sets a strong foundation, we view it as an important step—not the finish line. Full success for the Lords of the Fallen universe lies ahead, with more to deliver to fans old and new.”
The announcement follows news earlier this week that CI Games secured an additional $19 million in investor funding, which will be used to diversify distribution channels of Lords of the Fallen II. Recently released alpha footage of the sequel — showcasing faster, more aggressive combat — has already received widespread praise.
Built on Unreal Engine 5, Lords of the Fallen II is set to launch later this year on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
