The development of Lords of the Fallen 2 has reached the finish line — CI Games studio has officially completed the investment round, raising the necessary $ 19 million. Marek Tyminski, CEO of the company, emphasized that investors believed in the concept of “Players first”, which became the basis for raising capital. Now the team has all the resources to bring the ambitious project to release.

Difficulty of Lords of the Fallen 2 hardcore without simplifications
Despite the influx of new money, the authors do not plan to change the basic mechanics for the sake of a mass audience. During communication with fans, Tyminski made it clear that there will be no simplified difficulty mode in the sequel. For those who are not familiar with the soulslike genre, this can be a serious entry threshold, but the developers remain true to their hardcore roots.
The basic principles of the upcoming action:
-
Uncompromising: The authors promise “mature and brutal” uncensored gameplay.
-
Feedback: edits to the balance are made based on community feedback after the first part.
-
Technologies: the project is being sharpened to meet the capacity of current hardware.
Release, platforms and system requirements: What to expect from Lords of the Fallen 2
Officially, Lords of the Fallen 2 has still “staked out” the year 2026 for itself — CI Games has not yet announced a specific number, but analysts and investors are dividing the calendar into quarters. Judging by the rhetoric of the press releases, the studio is aiming not at the beginning of the year, but rather at the “autumn – late autumn” window. This is logical: it is during this period that the market is most heated up for heavy-duty AAA action games.
As for accessibility, the developers did not skimp on audience coverage. Lords of the Fallen 2 is being prepared for release on all current platforms:
-
PC: An exclusive launch launch in the Epic Games Store has been confirmed.
-
Consoles: The title will be released on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
In addition, the absence of a Steam page on the release does not mean the eternal ban of the Gaben site — practice shows that after temporary exclusivity in the Epic Games Store, large projects safely reach the “old guard”.
Pull or not: system requirements of Lords of the Fallen 2
The developers decided not to play marketing hide-and-seek and immediately rolled out realistic hardware specifications. Forget about NVIDIA’s “old lady” 10 series — here the bar starts at the RTX 2060 level.
System Requirements
For owners of the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, the news is also positive — CI Games promises a clear 60 FPS performance mode. The emphasis is on a stable framerate, rather than excessive graphical bells and whistles that kill the smoothness of the battle. It seems that work on the errors of the first part is really in full swing — at least in technical terms.
