Lords of the Fallen Extends Support with Ambitious Version 2.0 Update
HEXWORKS announces a year-long extension of support for Lords of the Fallen, culminating in a massive Version 2.0 update packed with new content, features, and quality-of-life improvements.
Fans of Lords of the Fallen can rejoice! HEXWORKS, the development studio behind the challenging action RPG, has announced a significant extension to its post-launch support plan. Initially slated for a shorter period, the team has committed to an additional year of development, culminating in a monumental Version 2.0 update. This ambitious update promises to significantly enhance the overall player experience, addressing community feedback and introducing substantial new content.
Version 2.0 will not be a mere patch; it’s a comprehensive overhaul designed to refine and expand upon the core gameplay loop. Players can expect significant improvements to combat, including a rebalancing of enemy encounters, adjustments to the game’s challenging difficulty curve, and the potential introduction of new combat mechanics to add greater depth and strategic options. The team has hinted at a new “Momentum System” designed to reward aggressive, skillful play, and a revamped skill tree offering greater customization options.
Beyond combat enhancements, Version 2.0 will also deliver a hefty dose of new content. HEXWORKS is currently tight-lipped on specifics, but mentions of a significant expansion to the game’s already expansive world are circulating. This could involve the addition of new areas to explore, offering fresh challenges and potentially uncovering hidden lore. Further details about narrative additions and any potential new bosses or enemies will be revealed in the coming months.
This extended support demonstrates HEXWORKS’ commitment to fostering a strong and engaged community around Lords of the Fallen. The developers have consistently listened to player feedback since launch and incorporated many suggestions into smaller updates leading up to Version 2.0. This iterative process ensures the final update is carefully crafted to meet the expectations of the players who have embraced the game’s demanding but rewarding experience.
The roadmap leading to Version 2.0 will be unveiled in the coming weeks, offering a detailed breakdown of what players can anticipate during the next year. HEXWORKS has promised regular communication and updates to keep the community informed of their progress. With a year of dedicated development ahead, Lords of the Fallen looks set to evolve into an even more compelling and unforgettable experience for both veteran players and newcomers alike.

YES! Finally! Been waiting for a difficulty adjustment. The original was brutal, but in a good way, but some of the boss fights felt cheap. Excited to see what the Momentum System brings!

A year of support? Wow, that’s impressive! I wasn’t expecting this level of commitment from HEXWORKS. Already planning my second playthrough in anticipation of 2.0.

Sounds promising, but I’m reserving judgment until we see the roadmap. ‘Significant’ and ‘substantial’ are pretty vague. Show me the goods, HEXWORKS!

I’m cautiously optimistic. Loved the game’s atmosphere, but the combat felt a bit clunky at times. Hoping the improvements will make it even more fluid and satisfying.

This is fantastic news! Lords of the Fallen is one of my favorite games this year. More content and a better skill tree? Count me in!

About time! The game was fun, but the lack of endgame content was a major letdown. Hope this year-long support fixes that. A new area would be amazing!

Hype train is leaving the station! Can’t wait for new combat mechanics and expanded world. This game needed more love, and it looks like it’s getting it.

I’m skeptical. Many developers promise extensive post-launch support, but deliver subpar updates. HEXWORKS needs to prove they can deliver on this ambitious plan.

This sounds incredible! I’ve been begging for a better skill tree since launch. If they deliver on their promises, this will solidify Lords of the Fallen as a true classic.

A whole year of additional content? This is beyond what I expected. Hats off to HEXWORKS for listening to their community. Here’s to a triumphant Version 2.0!

While I appreciate the extended support, I’m slightly worried that focusing on 2.0 might mean less attention to bug fixes in the meantime. Hope they prioritize both aspects.

The initial game was tough, but rewarding. If they actually improve the difficulty curve and add a new momentum system, then this will be a huge win. Very interested in seeing the roadmap.

Been waiting for this! The original game had so much potential, and this update sounds like it will finally unlock it. Bring on Version 2.0!
