Critic Reviews
Lords of the Fallen review
Lords of the Fallen is an enjoyable, challenging game, and the aesthetics are out of this world, but it suffers at times from a lack of focus.
80%Lords of the Fallen review
Some of the best boss fights in the genre's recent history, riddled with difficulty spikes in all the wrong places.
79%Lords of the Fallen review: "Aspirations to be Dark Souls 4 might have been a little ambitious"
Lords of the Fallen just about justifies the return of this forgotten franchise by being basically fine. It has a few clever ideas and a whole bunch of very predictable ones, ultimately resulting in a soulslike experience that won't feel particularly new or fresh, but rarely offends or goes too far wrong.
