The Polish publisher CI Games has released a new trailer for its upcoming action RPG Lords of the Fallen. The title is regarded as a successor to the installment released in 2014, but it bears a striking resemblance to a very special game brand, namely Dark Souls. Check out the trailer here.
What kind of game is this? The new action game from CI Games has been in development for several years (via ign.com). It is based on Unreal Engine 5 and offers a semi-open world where you must stand your ground against all sorts of monstrosities. It is expected to offer these features (via Steam):
- A parallel world awaits you, that of the dead as well as the living
- A fast, fluid, and challenging combat system awaits you
- Use magical attacks and buffs
- Embark on shared adventures by inviting a second player
- Experience characters that want to help you for their own reasons
- Customize your character and choose from 9 starting classes, such as Knight, Rogue, or Fire Apprentice.

What does the trailer show? The trailer opens the scene with a group of several protagonists walking through a hall of epic proportions, receiving a red glove.
In advance, it is explained that the demon god Adyr has defeated the army of Mournstead with his legion and brought it down. Nevertheless, there seems to be hope in the form of the Dark Crusader

Especially the musical accompaniment contributes to the atmosphere
The following shows a hauntingly beautiful landscape with different biomes. Several scenes are added that showcase the gameplay with combat encounters and the use of a lantern along with divine power. Overall, the presentation reminds of the Dark Souls series or Elden Ring.
Notably, the musical accompaniment enhances the ambiance, making you crave for more.
Whether the action title will eventually follow the successful path of a Dark Souls or Elden Ring remains uncertain for now. However, the trailer promises an action storm of epic proportions that you can play either solo or in co-op mode.
