Lords of the Fallen is finally getting a sequel, after being officially announced at Gamescom. The 2023 reboot/sequel to Lords of the Fallen was a big hit with Soulslike fans and critics, the game blended elements of the original 2014 Lords of the Fallen title with some of the grimdark stylings of Dark Souls for a new RPG adventure. Now, Lords of the Fallen will be getting a sequel, naturally called Lords of the Fallen 2. So, here’s everything you need to know.
Does Death of the Fallen have a release date?
No, the game doesn’t have a release date yet, but we do know it’ll release sometime in 2026.
When we have a complete release date, we’ll be updating this, so be sure to check back soon.
Death of the Fallen gameplay & setting
While Death of the Fallen isn’t confirmed to be in development, a sequel to Lords of the Fallen (2023) is likely to continue the story of Mournstead following on from one of LotF’s three endings. As with the original game, one of the endings is likely to be canon and this will inform the setting of the next game. Based on the events of each ending, the next Lords of the Fallen game could look very different.
However, we expect the game will once again be a brutal Soulslike adventure, tonally dark, and keeping the setting of the rebooted game from 2023, rather than the high fantasy adventure from 2014. In many ways, the Lords of the Fallen series is the spiritual successor of the Dark Souls games, keeping the tense and claustrophobic gameplay that was abandoned when Elden Ring was released as a more open-world experience.
Trailer
As part of Gamescom 2025, a brand new World Premiere Trailer was released. It showcased plenty of new characters, epic battles, blood-soaked corpses, grotesque tentacled horrors, and towering armored foes.
