Over three years since its announcement, CI Games has confirmed development on Lords of the Fallen 2 has begun again, and under a new development studio.

The game has resumed development under a newer developer, New York City-based Defiant Studios. The east coast developer was formed back in 2016 by David Grijns, the former studio boss of Avalanche Studios New York and game director on Just Cause 3. The rest of the staff include “veteran staff with proven track records in developing top-selling AAA games.”

CI Games have described their partnership with Defiant Studios as an “important step” in delivering a top-notch follow up to their 2014 released action RPG, which Deck13 developed. To date, the first Lords of the Fallen has sold over two million units.
