The game industry has been experiencing a fairly turbulent period of shake-ups, change-ups and \u201crestructuring.\u201d Now this appears to have affected the upcoming Lords of the Fallen II.<\/p>\n

Twitter user @HazzadorGamin<\/a> posted to their account a filing by CI Games-developers of the 2014 Lords of the Fallen and publisher of the 2023 remake-announcing the dissolving of their partnership with Epic Games, who was acting in some capacity to publish the upcoming sequel. The filing (which was made on April 14th, 2026, but withheld for legal reasons) states, \u201cCompany entered into a Separation Agreement with Epic Games, Inc. that releases Company from its obligations as provided in the Binding Publishing Term Sheet concluded by the Company and Epic on June 14, 2024.\u201d<\/p>\n

The filing also states, \u201cThe conclusion of the Agreement by the Company and Epic will not affect the ongoing cooperation between the parties in relation to the Unreal Engine, Epic online services, Epic account services, or the Company\u2019s participation in the Fortnite ecosystem, and each of these relationships will continue and remain governed by their respective separate agreements.\u201d<\/p>\n

While this likely means Lords of the Fallen II will end up being sold on the Epic Game Store, it potentially gives the game room to be sold on other PC storefronts as well, alongside the chance its characters may appear within the live-service giant. According to WCCFTech<\/a>, CI Games CEO Marek Tyminski supposedly hinted on Twitter that the \u201csituation could change\u201d regarding where Lords of the Fallen II would be sold.<\/p>\n

The Lords of the Fallen<\/a> 2023 remake was developed by HEXWORKS-a studio formed in 2020 as part of CI Games-with CI Games acting as publisher. CI Games has taken on both development and publishing roles for Lords of the Fallen II, which may also explain their break from Epic Games.<\/p>\n
