Hexworksreleases a free update forLords of the FallenonPC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, adding a friend pass, gameplay improvements, and other changes.
Lords of the Fallen Version 2.0
One of the best soulslike games of 2023 has just been updated onPS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PCto stand toe-to-toe withElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree,The First Berserker: Khazan, and other titles in the genre. Best of all, this update is completely free.
It’s known thatCI Gameshas begun work on a sequel toLords of the Fallen(a PC-exclusive on Epic), which itself continued the story seen in the 2014 game of the same name. However, the publisher has stated they won’t pursue inclusivity out of fear that it might not bring the same commercial success.
If you already own the game, you can now download version 2.0, which includes an improved UI/HUD, cross-play and cross-save functionality, and many other new features.
Perhaps the most interesting addition is thefriend passfeature, which works similarly to the invites in Split/Second—without needing a second copy of the game.
This means a player can invite someone else to enjoy cross-platform co-op, even if that second person doesn’t own the game. It makes it much easier for two players to adventure together in this soulslike world.
Here’s everything version 2.0 adds to the game, now available as a free download onPC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
Improves Everything
In addition to the friend pass, it’s now possible to playLords of the Fallenin co-op regardless of platform. Cross-play can be enabled to team up with a friend playing on another console or on PC.
Similarly, cross-save has been added, so you can keep your progress no matter which platform you’re using.
Lords of the Fallennow features a completely redesigned user interface and HUD, making it more accessible and user-friendly for everyone. That’s just a small part of what’s been improved—even the tutorials have been overhauled.
A jump button has also been added, along with new movement options, attacks, and various combat improvements that make battles more dynamic and visually striking.
As part of the game’s dual-world mechanic, a new guide has been introduced for using the Umbral Lamp—an essential tool for exploring the alternate dimension inLords of the Fallen, so it’s worth checking out.
Other areas that have seen updates include the character creator and weapon sound effects, which now better reflect each weapon’s unique characteristics.
The game from CI Games is now compatible with PSSR improvements on PS5 Pro, though additional upgrades might arrive starting in 2026.
Lords of the Fallenis available onPS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC,so if you left it unfinished, now’s a great time to jump back in and see everything version 2.0 has changed. Remember, it’s also available on Game Pass for Microsoft consoles, Windows, and the cloud.
