CI Games has delayed the release of Lords of the Fallen II to Q1 2027 for Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Epic Games Store and Steam. Originally, Lords of the Fallen II was planned to release in fall 2026 before being delayed. The delay positions Lords of the Fallen II outside of an extremely busy holiday season, which is shaping up to be headlined by The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Grand Theft Auto VI.
Here’s a message regarding the game’s delay, via CI Games founder Marek Tyminski:
Lords of the Fallen II is now set for a Q1 2027 release window.
As development progresses, we have worked closely with the Gameplay Feedback Team, a dedicated group of seasoned Souls-like veterans within our Launch Creative Team. Their valuable ongoing input, combined with the team’s vision, has identified meaningful opportunities to further refine and strengthen the overall experience.
These enhancements will benefit from additional integration, iteration, and polishing time, enabling the team to deliver the highest possible quality at launch.
This updated release window also strategically positions Lords of the Fallen II outside of a highly competitive holiday period, ensuring the game receives the dedicated attention it deserves.
The team remains fully energized by the strong response to our recent reveals and is deeply focused on delivering a standout dark fantasy action RPG and a worthy successor to the Lords of the Fallen franchise. We are grateful for the continued passion, feedback, and support from our community, and we look forward to sharing more updates in the coming months.
