Deck13 and CI Games have been showing off their fantasy action RPG Lords of the Fallen, and you can check out the resulting seven-minute gameplay video here.
While you do so, try not to think about any other third-person dungeon-crawlers with nasty enemy critters, classless progression and punishing combat.
IGN talk to producer Tomasz Gop here, and check out some of the game’s elaborately designed dungeons. It look great, with some excellent animations and lighting effects, but it’s hard not to immediately think of Dark Souls when watching it.
There’s room for two fantasy action RPGs though, and my first impressions of a demo build earlier this year were favourable. It’s taking on board some of the best mechanics of From Software’s hit series, but aims for a slightly less hardcore, punishing approach.
Lords of the Fallen is expected out in Fall this year for PC and current-gen consoles.
