CI Games Delays Lords of the Fallen 2 to Q1 2027 Amid Holiday Competition

Gamers planning to play Lords of the Fallen 2 will have to wait longer than expected for the dark fantasy action RPG. The release date shifted from a planned 2026 launch to Q1 2027, giving players more time to clear their current game libraries before picking up another Souls-like title.

Developer cites holiday competition and gameplay feedback for the shift.

Developer CI Games moved the launch window to avoid competing with other major holiday releases in late 2026. The studio also pointed to feedback from its Gameplay Feedback Team as a factor in pushing back the schedule for the upcoming sequel.

The original timeline targeted a 2026 release before the delay pushed the title into early next year. CI Games now positions Lords of the Fallen 2 within the Q1 2027 window instead of the previous calendar slot.

The studio cites holiday period competition and Gameplay Feedback Team input as reasons for the new date. The game remains classified as a dark fantasy action RPG in the Souls-like genre following the schedule adjustment.
