Soulslike RPGLords Of The Fallen- previouslyTheLords Of The Fallen- is coming out on October 13th, an appropriately spooky date considering how many twisted monsters are on display. Halfway between sequel and reboot, this newest game is set a thousand years after 2014’s original game of the same name, and features all the dark fantasy tropes you love from the Soulslike subgenre. Take a look at the very metal gameplay reveal below.LORDS OF THE FALLEN - Official Gameplay Reveal Trailer || Pre-Order Now on PC, PS5 & Xbox Series X|SWatch on YouTube“The radiance of Mournestead withers” is such a great impersonation of Fromsoftware’s cryptic dialogue, it almost becomes a spoof. I’d quite enjoy that angle. Apart from that, everything you’d expect from a good Soulslike is here in full force: dodge rolls aplenty, monsters with teeth spurting out from every angle, and a tall figure that’s looks likeElden Ring’s Melenia if you squint enough. Seriously, are we sure this isn’tDark Souls4 in disguise? It looks quite good regardless.The interconnected world is now split across two realms in an interesting twist. There’s Axiom, the brighter overworld full of ancient ruins and scenes of nature. Then there’s Umbral, the pitch-black underworld that’s stuffed with skeletal figures around every corner. Bones stretch out of the walls, hang off the ceilings, and previous trailers have our main protagonist scaling massive skeletal remains. It’s oddly beautiful, though. Together, both realms are supposedly five times larger than the original game.Lords Of The Fallen has had a bumpy road to release. Originally announced as Lords Of The Fallen 2, the game has sinceswitched developers twicebefore rebooting development and starting on what we see now. OurLords Of The Fallen (2014) reviewwas mostly mixed, saying that it “lacks the finesse and precision of its inspiration.”Hopefully the new one fares better. Lords Of The Fallen releases October 13th on next-gen consoles and PC viaSteamandThe Epic Games Store.
