While Deck13 unveils Atlas Fallen, its new Action-RPG developed under the aegis of Focus Entertainment, CI Games reveals the existence of The Lords of the Fallen, which is none other than a reboot of the game created by Deck13 in 2014. As a result, the Hexworks studio was commissioned to take over the sequel, which will be in the form of a reboot. It's still CI Games that oversees the project with this desire to do it with the Unreal Engine 5 and to promise at least one devastating plastic. Hexworks is led by executive producer Saul Gascon (Dead by Daylight, PayDay 2) and creative director Cezar Virtosu (Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Assassin's Creed: Origins). The company, founded in 2020, is home to a global team of more than 75 in-house developers, not including external helpers. While waiting to discover the gameplay, we can enjoy a first video made in full CGI, but which gives the rather dark tone of this title planned for 2023 on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series.
The story of this Lords of the Fallen will be set over 1 years after the events of the first game, with the promise of a gigantic interconnected world, more than five times the size of the original game. History that this Action-RPG is worthy of a genre that has become extremely popular, it promises a world filled with NPC quests, captivating characters and a rich narrative. The player will be able to create their avatar from scratch, but also to invite a second player to join the single-player campaign for uninterrupted online cooperation. The release of The Lords of the Fallen is scheduled for 000 on PC, PS2023 and Xbox Series.
