If you’re in need for more Soulslike action after Lies of P, then Lords of the Fallen has got you covered. Developed by Hexworks and published by CI Games, this remake of the flawed title from 2014 looks like it can indeed make good on the unfulfilled promises of the original.

Available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, Lords of the Fallen arrives just in time for spooky season – befitting its dark theme.

We’ve got everything you need to know about the Lords of the Fallen release times and preload right here for you.

Lords of the Fallen: release times

The Lords of the Fallen release times are different depending on your platform of choice. It will unlock on Xbox Series X|S and PS5 on October 13, 2023, at 12am local time everywhere in the world – it’s a run-of-the-mill midnight release. That makes the good old New Zealand trick viable for Xbox users, who are especially impatient to get into the game. Simply change your console’s location to New Zealand and you’ll be able to start playing a few hours ahead of time.

On PC, Lords of the Fallen arrives throughout the day on October 13, 2023, and in some regions even on October 14, 2023. Here’s what that means for your time zone:

  • October 13, 2023, 7am PT
  • October 13, 2023, 9am CT
  • October 13, 2023, 10am ET

Lords of the Fallen: preload

You can currently preload Lords of the Fallen on Xbox Series X|S and PS5, enabling you to get into the game right away once it unlocks without having to waste much time downloading data.

On consoles, the game’s file size is around 33GB, so make sure you have enough free storage space on your hard drive.

It’s currently unclear what’s going on with Lord of the Fallen’s PC preload. On social media, the game’s official account stated on October 11, 2023, that it would have information about it soon. So far, however, nothing has been communicated. It’s safe to say that they are cutting it rather close.

In the meantime, check out our Lords of the Fallen preview to get a glimpse of what the game has to offer.
