Publisher CI Games and designer Hexworks launched Lords of the Fallen, its soft reboot of the 2014 Lords of the Fallen, previously this month, on Friday the 13th. It really did not rather land for us – Game Informer gave it a 6 out of 10 – yet a brand-new upgrade that launches later on today repairs among the significant troubles we had with the soulslike. That’s due to the fact that the brand-new Pumpkin Patch upgrade that go for 2 p.m. PT/5 p.m. ET today includes decreased opponent thickness. Plus, the spot brings complete crossplay to the game together with efficiency and security repairs and even more.
The Pumpkin Patch upgrade likewise brings an unique in-game Halloween party to the setup of Mournstead that begins today and ends November 2.
“Experience Mournstead in festive attire with seasonal decorations and enjoy the all-platform release of our major update, The Pumpkin Patch, introducing fresh gameplay mechanics inspired by community feedback,” the upgrade reviews. This consists of a new questline that will certainly permit gamers to get the Pumpkin Mask, “a horrifying helm inspired by the iconic jack-o’-lantern.”
Elsewhere in this spot, Hexworks has actually overhauled Lords of the Fallen’s New Game Plus setting with a brand-new tiered system that presents Vestiges (the game’s handle Dark Souls’ bonfire checkpoints) to the game setting; each brand-new degree of NG+ eliminates a lot more Vestiges from the experience, making each run harder than the last.
Here’s a complete failure from Hexworks on the significant modifications can be found in The Pumpkin Patch upgrade:
- Revamped New Game Plus (NG+) – A brand-new tiered NG+ system presents Vestiges to the game setting; each greater degree of NG+ eliminates a lot more Vestiges from the game, raising gamer trouble.
- Full crossplay – Players can currently experience complete crossplay capability in between all computer and console systems. This adheres to the intro of crossplay in between Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 gamers for the very first time previously today.
- Reduced opponent thickness – A decrease of the opponent thickness in locations observed as being most tough for gamers.
