Publisher CI Games has revealed that developer HexWorks will continue to release new updates for Lords of the Fallen this year, and will ultimately take the game up to version 2.0. For context, Lords of the Fallen is currently on version 1.7.
In a conversation with investors, CI Games’ senior vice president of development Tom O’Connor stated that the plan is to maximise the sales of Lords of the Fallen, which means giving the game more meaningful updates and responding to player feedback.
“To continue maximising sales of Lords of the Fallen 2023 in line with strategic markdowns and the continued release of meaningful updates up to v2.0 in response to player feedback and external user testing,” responded O’Connor to a question about CI Games’ business plans for 2025.
O’Connor also spoke about other projects that CI Games is working on, including an unannounced game dubbed Project 3 which will be a follow-up to Lords of the Fallen. There is also a title dubbed Project H, which is currently in pre-production.
“With regards to our titles in development – we have Project 3 in full production, the next instalment in the Lords of the Fallen franchise and during this year will have extensive player testing to ensure we achieve high-quality and maximise the games potential,” he said. “Both SGW Evolved and Project H are in pre-production, and we are closing in on the vision for these titles, with more details to follow at a later date.”
When the company asked about the potential for more free content being added to Lords of the Fallen to help “build positive sentiments” from the game’s players, marketing director Ryan Hill responded by stating that the company has seen positivity about the game on the rise thanks to the release of free updates and DLC over the last couple of years. This also means that the company plans on continuing this strategy.
