Six months in the past, we welcomed you to the daunting darkish fantasy world of Mournstead, as we launched our debut sport, Lords of the Fallen, on Xbox Sequence X|S. We wished to problem action-RPG followers with a contemporary tackle the style and – as one of the first video games to be developed in Unreal Engine 5 – ship a singular expertise.
This week, we’ve reached the largest milestone since launch: Model 1.5 – Grasp of Destiny. It’s the end result of over 30 updates launched since launch, which has seen further new content material and high quality of life updates – together with rigorous issue balancing – which have considerably improved efficiency, stability, and optimisation throughout the board. All of this has resulted in Grasp of Destiny being the perfect model of Lords of the Fallen thus far.
Importantly, Grasp of Destiny delivers the ultimate milestone of the sport’s in depth post-launch roadmap: A genuinely groundbreaking superior sport modifier system that lets you warp and twist the gameplay in a number of basic methods.
Out there to marketing campaign completionists and complete newcomers alike, these modifiers embrace the skill to randomize loot so that you’ll by no means know what you’ll choose up subsequent; any and each weapon, piece of armor, or merchandise will be discovered any level all through the darkish and dangerous journey by means of Mournstead. Equally, you would additionally select to allow the random enemy spawn modifier, and at any level face off towards any of the 70-plus enemy varieties that scar the landscapes of each the realms of the residing and of the useless… who is aware of what can be ready for you round the subsequent nook!
As if not realizing which unholy creature is able to pulverize you at a second’s discover isn’t sufficient to ship a shiver down your backbone, different modifiers embrace the skill to regulate the quantity of enemies throughout group encounters, whereas one other – the Withered Therapeutic modifier – restricts the effectiveness of well being objects. Flip this on, and well being can solely be regained by dealing harm to enemies, encouraging you to take a extra aggressive fashion of play. And for the final ‘git gud’ problem, we’ve added a relatively nefarious modifier… Ironman Mode. Get slain in Umbral – the realm of the useless – with this enabled, and also you’ll have to begin your journey to thwart the demon-god Adyr over again, albeit with your loot and character stage intact (I did say you’ll need to git gud!)
After all, enabling one or any quantity of modifier combos will dramatically change the way you expertise Lords of the Fallen. The thought of making your method up by means of Redcopse Village – the very first location in the sport after the tutorial space – and being confronted by a number of Skinstealers once you’re solely armed with stage one weaponry, is unquestionably sufficient to set off nightmares… Nevertheless, no mixture has a higher impact on the sport than enabling the randomised enemies, randomised loot, and Ironman Mode modifiers…
Think about for a second, having the fortitude and braveness to start a journey by means of the twin realms, the place any weapon might be discovered at any time, and the place the most hellish end-game creature might lurk in the darkness. Think about realizing {that a} momentary lapse of focus or judgement, would plunge you again to the very starting of the Darkish Crusader’s story. To place it bluntly, activate these particular modifiers, and also you received’t be experiencing Lords of the Fallen as an action-RPG; as a substitute, you’ll be going through the brutal cliff-face of the sport as an motion roguelike – an incalculably formidable prospect!
So… do you dare change into a Grasp of Destiny?
