Lords of the Fallen II is in development at HEXWORKS and CI Games for a Q1 2027 release on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. The studio has detailed a combat rework built around 28 unique weapon motion sets and mid-combo weapon switching.
Lords of the Fallen II was announced with a one-minute trailer at Summer Game Fest 2026, then scheduled for fall 2026 on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, with Japanese display support confirmed. On June 24, CI Games CEO Marek Tyminski delayed the soulslike action RPG to the first quarter of 2027, citing the competitive holiday period around the November 19 launch of Grand Theft Auto VI, ongoing feedback from the Gameplay Feedback Team, and the need for additional polish. The delay story also lists Nintendo Switch 2 among the platforms, which the trailer story did not.
Financing followed the schedule change. CI Games told investors on October 30 that it signed a syndicated loan with Erste Bank Polska and Bank Ochrony Srodowiska totaling 28.6 million euros, about 5 billion yen, to cover remaining development and release costs for the sequel. Repayment is set for August 31, 2027.
The most recent material is combat detail. Two combat videos for Lords of the Fallen II, set in Tharngal 100 years after the 2023 game, raise unique weapon motion sets from about 15 to 28 and add mid-combo weapon switching, two quick-fire slots on melee gear, and four-spell catalyst loadouts. The messaging is centered on weapon variety and build flexibility rather than the setting. Q1 2027 remains the stated window on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2.
