Lords of the Fallen Gets a Release Date and a New Action-Packed Unreal Engine 5 Trailer

Rumors have been circulating for the past few days, but today CI Games and Hexworks officially announced an October release date for Lords of the Fallen. They also dropped a new trailer for the Unreal-Engine-5-powered Soulslike, and the game is looking pretty damn impressive. Perhaps not of the same scope as Elden Ring, but the environments are eye-catching, and the action is intense. And hey, playing Iron Maiden over the trailer certainly doesn’t hurt. You can check it out for yourself, below.
