Earlier in April, the crew at Hexworks unveiled patch 1.5 for Lords of the Fallen – the ultimate update for the game, introducing a plethora of fresh features like the ‘Advanced Game Modifier System’. Despite being labeled as the concluding major update for the game, Hexworks has amazed enthusiasts with one more ultimate ‘ultimate update’.

On Reddit, Hexworks crew made public and subsequently rolled out this surprise update, declaring:

“Did you really think VERSION 1.5 – ‘Master of Fate’ was the concluding chapter in your challenging expedition through Mournstead? Well, it’s time to reignite the torch, Crusader, for another journey awaits…”

They elaborate, “Pursuant to requests from a large portion of you, today we present ‘Clash of Champions’, a fresh update that presents a tough challenge to those seeking the ultimate test of expertise and perseverance.”

This recent update introduces two novel game modes named ‘Boss Rush’ and ‘Crucible’. Both modes are playable alone or in online co-op, adding significantly to the replay value of the game.

In addition to these fresh modes, the update ushers in further performance enhancements and more. For full details on the update, click HERE. It remains to be seen if this is indeed the definitive final update, or if Hexworks still holds some unexpected concepts in reserve.
