The Lords of the Fallen, a new dark fantasy action-RPG, has just been revealed during Gamescom’s Opening Night Live! We at CI Games are excited to shed a little more light on the title’s vast world of shadow and chaos with the Sony community today. 

In development for PlayStation 5, the Lords of the Fallen introduces players to an all-new adventure in a world that has fallen into an even darker age, over a thousand years after the events of the original 2014 hit.

The very first trailer for The Lords of the Fallen is a  three minute cinematic narrated by the iconic Joseph Quinn (Stranger Things, Game of Thrones). Feast your eyes below:
