YouTube’s ‘KONSOLOWE.info’ has shared a video, showcasing one hour of gameplay footage from the Unreal Engine 5-powered Souls-like game, Lords of the Fallen.
From the looks of it, this is an extended video from the Gamescom 2023 demo. Thus, you’ll be able to see how the game’s latest version currently looks and plays. To be honest, though, I feel a bit tired of this Souls-like formula. Don’t get me wrong, everything feels fine in this video. However, after playing Lies of P, I need a break from these games. Seriously, this genre currently feels oversaturated with games.
Anyway, Lords of the Fallen takes place in a vast, semi-open world. Your goal will be quite simple. You’ll have to overthrow Adyr, the demon God who is the main villain. Each major area will be interconnected with at least two others, and the game will have a dual-realm mechanic.
Alongside the living realm, Axiom, exists its undead counterpart, Umbral, with each realm featuring its own unique pathways, enemies, characters, and, of course, treasures. Equipped with the Umbral Lamp, players can cross over to this parallel world at any time, however, doing so will use one of their two lives. As for when a player dies in the living realm, they will automatically resurrect in the exact same spot albeit in the undead realm, for one final chance to survive.
Lords of the Fallen will take advantage of Lumen, will feature really high-quality textures, and will be using UE5’s Chaos Physics for advanced simulation for clothes, chains, hair, and belts. However, I’m still not sure whether or not the game will be using Nanite.
CI Games will release Lords of the Fallen on October 13th. You can also find here the game’s official PC system requirements.
Enjoy!
