Lords of the Fallen — Overview
Lords of the Fallen is Hexworks and CI Games' 2023 souls-like reboot, set 1,000 years after the original 2014 game in a world split between the realm of the living (Axiom) and its parallel shadow dimension (Umbral) — dying in Axiom sends you to Umbral rather than ending the run outright. With a roster of 30 bosses and 10 playable classes (9 starting, plus a pre-order bonus and further unlockable classes), it was one of the standout souls-likes of its year. A standalone sequel, Lords of the Fallen II, was unveiled in 2025 but has since been delayed out of its original 2026 window into early 2027.
