Soulslike fans are getting another solid entry next year that could rival FromSoftware’s next big release, whatever that may be.
As someone who’s been in love with the genre for several years now, I’m thrilled to see so many soulslikes being made with varying levels of accessibility.
It’s almost here,Elden Ring: Shadow Of The Erdtreereleases later this week! Check out the story trailer below
While titles likeElden RingandDark Soulsdominate the genre, developers other than FromSoftware have created some pretty impressive entries of their own, one of which beingLords Of The Fallen.

For those who haven’t played it,Lords Of The Fallenit plays pretty similarly to a Dark Souls game, with a mediaeval setting, brutally challenging enemies/bosses and some wild interactions, like a giant frog you can play music to.
However it clearly performed well enough for a sequel to officially be in the works, and will release sometime in 2026. Details are slim at the moment though one thing we do know about it is it’ll be exclusive to theEpic Game StoreonPC, noSteamrelease unfortunately.
It’s also unclear if the game will actually be calledLords Of The Fallen 2or receive a different name. It’ll all depend on if it’s a direct sequel, or a sort of spiritual successor likeDark Soulswas forDemon Souls.

With the news thatShadow Of The Erdtreewill beElden Ring’sgrand-finale, officially opening up FromSoftware to other projects, only time will tell if the developer can retain its dominance over the soulsborne genre with its next release, or get kicked off its pedestal.
