The 2014 title was one of the first major releases to emulate FromSoftware’s success with Soulslike inspirations, so it’s interesting to see the reboot move away from some of the moretraditional fantasy-vibe marketingof the original. Instead this new trailer has a lot of the fever dream mightmare designs and mysterious whisper-talking VO we’ve come to expect from a FromSoft trailer. No complaints here.
Apart from that, the trailer doesn’t give away too much about the game’s combat, though we do get some shots of fighting. Special props to the spiky-headed enemy at the backend of the trailer who literally headbutts the floor in an attempt to attack - it could probably give Pyramid Head a run for his money. The trailer also gives us some glimpses of terrifying boss encounters and some very shiny Knight’s armour for our player character.
A follow-up to the original Lords Of The Fallen has been a long time coming. It was initially announced as Lords Of The Fallen 2 beforechanging developersto Hexworks, and eventually rebooting the name altogether. The Lords Of The Fallen will launch on PC and consoles at some point in 2023.
