Six months ago we welcomed you to the intimidating, dark fantasy world of Mournstead when we released our debut game. Lords of the Fallen, on Xbox Series X|S. We wanted to challenge action RPG fans with a fresh take on the genre and, as one of the first games developed in Unreal Engine 5, offer a unique experience.
This week we reached the biggest milestone since launch: Version 1.5 – Master of Fate. It’s the culmination of over 30 updates released since launch, bringing additional new content and quality of life updates – including strict difficulty balances – that have significantly improved performance, stability and optimization across the board. All of this has resulted in Master of Fate being the very best version of Lords of the Fallen to date.
Importantly, Master of Fate delivers the final milestone in the game’s extensive post-launch roadmap: a truly groundbreaking, advanced game modifier system that allows you to warp and twist gameplay in a variety of fundamental ways.
Available to both campaign completers and complete newbies, these modifiers include the ability to randomize loot so you never know what you’ll pick up next; Every single weapon, piece of armor or item can be found at any point during the dark and dangerous journey through Mournstead. Likewise, you could also choose to activate the random enemy spawn modifier and face off at any time against any of the 70+ enemy types that litter the landscapes of both the realms of the living and the realms of the dead…who knows what will happen is waiting waiting for you around the next corner!
As if not knowing which unholy creature is ready to pulverize you at a moment’s notice wasn’t enough to send shivers down your spine, other modifiers include the ability to adjust the number of enemies in group encounters, and a another – the “Wither Heal” modifier. – limits the effectiveness of health products. If you enable this option, health can only be recovered by dealing damage to enemies, encouraging you to adopt a more aggressive play style. And for the ultimate Git-Gud challenge, we’ve added a pretty nefarious modifier: Ironman mode. Get killed threshold
Of course, activating one or any number of modifier combinations will dramatically change your experience Lords of the Fallen. The idea of fighting your way through Redcopse Village – the very first location in the game after the tutorial area – and facing multiple Skinstealers while armed only with level 1 weapons is certainly enough to induce nightmares… However, no combination has a greater effect on the game than activating the random enemies, random loot and the Ironman Mode modifierS…
Imagine for a moment that you had the strength and courage to begin a journey through the Dual Realms, where any weapon could be found at any time and where the most hellish endgame creature could lurk in the darkness. Imagine knowing that a momentary lapse in concentration or judgment would take you back to the beginning of the Dark Crusader’s story. To put it bluntly: enable these specific modifiers and you will experience nothing Lords of the Fallen as an action RPG; Instead, as an action roguelike, you face the game’s brutal cliff face – an incalculably impressive prospect!
So… dare you become a master of fate?
