Dark fantasy action RPG  Lords of the Fallen , both a successor to the 2014 original anda reboot of the franchise, is launching on Friday, October 13th. 

With the launch date announcement comes an all-new trailer, showcasing lore and lots of combat gameplay.

There are certainly no shortages of huge monsters, fire, or bloody strikes. The twisted creatures you’ll get to face are shown off, interspersed with brief switches to narrative moments on your journey to prevent the resurrection of Adyr.

The trailer features music by legendary metal band Iron Maiden set against the backdrop of fire giants, three-headed dragons, and a series of other horrors all over Mournstead.
