Lords of the Fallen was a pretty good Souls-like when it first launched back in 2023, but developer Hexworks has been gradually improving it since — and version 2.0 looks to take that one step further.

Available now as a free game update, the 2.0 patch makes some big changes to the action RPG, overhauling it in various areas and enhancing the experience across the board.

Online co-op now has full shared progression, as well as a Friend Pass system, allowing you to invite a second player without the need for both players to own the game.

Combat and movement have also seen improvements made, with a view to making the game generally feel much tighter and more responsive. A dedicated jump button, more responsive attacks, snappier dodging, and improved lock-on all contribute to this.

Elsewhere, all weapon types have had an audio overhaul to make hits more satisfying; the character creator has improved options; and the game's user interface has been upgraded to make it cleaner and easier to navigate.

On top of all that, the tutorial has been revised, and there are new quality-of-life options like automatic vigor collection and visual button prompts for certain actions.

There's plenty of footage in the above video to back all this up, and it looks like a big upgrade to us. If you've played Lords of the Fallen in the past, it might be worth installing this update to see all the enhancements.
