Memorization and learning from your deaths are the keys to survival in Lords of The Fallen from Bandai Namco.
Bandai Namco has released a brand new trailer for their upcoming third-person action RPG, Lords of the Fallen today. The melee-focused gameplay in this new Challenge Trailer bears a striking resemblance to the calculated combat of the Dark Souls series (also published by Bandai Namco), with a bit of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow thrown in for good measure.
The trailer also seems to indicate that Lords of the Fallen won’t be sparing on the difficulty, as we see hero after hero enter the arena to be mercilessly slaughtered by a giant beast that’s dual-wielding flame blades. It is only after learning from these repeated defeats that the hero is ultimately able to conquer the beast: another staple of the Soulsseries.
So I guess we’d all better start getting ready to die, and then die again and again. Lords of the Fallen is currently in development by CI Games in conjunction with Deck13 Interactive, and is slated for a release sometime in 2014 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
What do you think? Does Lords of the Fallenhave what it takes to stand strong inside the arena of action RPG heavyweights?
