Halloween Comes to Lords of the Fallen
Hey there, gamers! Halloween is just around the corner, and you know what that means – spooky events in your favorite games. But have you ever seen a Souls-like action RPG host its own Halloween event? Well, get ready, because Lords of the Fallen is about to bring the horror to the world of the living!
An Umbral World of Horror
Now, we all know that Lords of the Fallen is no stranger to horror. Its Umbral world is filled with body horror and terrifying creatures that will make your skin crawl. But this Halloween event takes the horror up a notch by bringing some of that action to the world of the living.
A Limited-Time In-Game Event
To celebrate the release of the big 1.1.249 patch, the developers have kicked off a limited-time in-game event. This event is live now and will run until November 2, giving you plenty of time to join in on the fun. So, what can you expect from this event?
A New Quest and Themed Decorations
The Halloween event introduces a brand-new quest for you to embark on. Complete the quest, and you’ll be rewarded with the jack-o’-lantern-inspired Pumpskin Mask helmet. This helmet is not just a cosmetic item – it actually fits perfectly into the game’s world, adding an extra layer of immersion to your gameplay.
But that’s not all. The event also brings themed decorations to the world of Mournstead, giving it a spooky and festive atmosphere. So, get ready to explore a world transformed by Halloween!
Changes to Enemy Density
One of the biggest changes introduced in this patch is the reduction to enemy density in certain areas where players tend to struggle the most. It’s like a helping hand from the developers to make your journey through the game a bit easier. However, it’s worth noting that this change only applies to the normal game, not NG+.
Think of it as a power-up that gives you an advantage against tough enemies, just like finding a powerful weapon or leveling up in your favorite RPG. It’s all about balancing the challenge and making sure you have a great time playing.
Changes to New Game+
The patch also brings changes to how New Game+ works. Now, Vestiges (bonfires) will persist across multiple NG+ runs, with their numbers increasing each time. However, once you reach NG+3, these Vestiges will be removed from the game, forcing you to rely on shortcuts and your own skills to progress. It’s like starting a new game with a twist, adding an extra layer of challenge for those seeking it.
Cross-Play Support and Performance Optimizations
Good news for PC and console players – cross-play support has returned! Now, you can team up with or compete against players from different platforms without any limitations. It’s like joining forces with a friend to tackle a difficult raid or facing off against rivals in an intense PvP match.
And let’s not forget about the performance optimizations. The developers have worked hard to ensure a smooth gaming experience, especially on PC. It’s like upgrading your gaming setup to boost your performance and make every frame count.
Conclusion: Embrace the Halloween Spirit
So, gamers, don’t miss out on the Halloween fun in Lords of the Fallen. Dive into the Umbral world and experience the horrors of Halloween firsthand. Complete the new quest, collect the exclusive Pumpskin Mask helmet, and explore a world transformed by spooky decorations.
But remember, this event is only available for a limited time, so make sure to jump in before it’s too late. Whether you’re a seasoned player or new to the game, this Halloween event is a great opportunity to embrace the spirit of the season and enjoy some thrilling gameplay.
So, grab your controller, put on your headset, and get ready to face the horrors of Halloween in Lords of the Fallen. It’s time to level up your gaming experience and have a spooktacular time!
