"Clash of Champions," the most recent Lords of the Fallen update, adds new boss rush modes along with substantial performance enhancements. Since its release in 2023, Hexworks' Lords of the Fallen has undergone continuous development. This action RPG has received multiple updates to improve gameplay and respond to player feedback. It is well-known for its fierce combat and extensive lore. The creators of the game have demonstrated a dedication to upholding and enhancing the product, attending to community concerns, and establishing a high bar for post-launch assistance.

With better gameplay and a more immersive experience than its 2014 predecessor, the 2023 sequel Lords of the Fallen represented a major upgrade. The range of fist-based weaponry available to players, along with the option to fight with just your fists, have been well received by them. This combat style is distinct in the Soulslike genre. One of the greatest Soulslike games is Lords of the Fallen because of its distinctive characteristics and regular updates.

Echoes of Battle and Crucible are the two new boss rush modes included in the Clash of Champions update. While players can recreate their favorite boss battles in Echoes of Battle, Crucible presents a difficult set of trials against several bosses one after the other. These game types are available in both single-player and online cooperative multiplayer formats, and can be accessed using Vestige checkpoint markers inside the game. Along with performance improvements, this update completely fixes the stuttering problems that were present with the Master of Fate update, making for a more enjoyable and fluid gameplay experience.

Updates for Lords of the Fallen have been both a boon and a bane; while they have improved performance and balance, they have also brought in new issues. Updates have greatly affected the game's performance and balance even though it is not a live-service game. However, some users have mentioned problems, like the game's inability to keep a 60 frames per second frame rate and sporadic errors that interfere with gameplay. In an effort to demonstrate its dedication to continuous development and establish a standard for how non-live-service games may sustain player engagement through frequent updates, Hexworks has released a roadmap for upcoming releases.

The game was further improved with the March 2024 release of the previous Lords of the Fallen update 1.1.637. The smoother gameplay experience was ensured by fixing visual glitches and multiplayer difficulties in this release. In addition, it improved PvP encounters and balanced the game by fixing some spells and interactions.

In 2024, CI Games will likely have to make a large number of layoffs despite the game's unprecedented commercial success and profitability. Another round of layoffs has been announced by the publisher, affecting about thirty workers. Hexworks, however, is unaffected.
