CI Games ends Epic exclusivity for Lords of the Fallen 2 PC

The developer CI Games has ended its exclusive publishing agreement with Epic Games for the upcoming action role-playing game Lords of the Fallen 2, paving the way for a potential simultaneous launch on other PC platforms, including Steam. The decision, which was formalized in a Separation Agreement on April 14, 2026, releases the Polish studio from obligations under a binding term sheet signed in June 2024.

According to a regulatory filing with the Warsaw Stock Exchange, the termination is conditional but frees CI Games from the exclusivity arrangement that would have granted Epic Games distribution rights for the PC version. The company stated that the conclusion of this agreement does not affect its ongoing technical partnerships with Epic, including the continued use of Unreal Engine and other Epic online services.

The announcement was delayed until May 18, with CI Games explaining that immediate disclosure could have harmed its business interests during the negotiation period. Following the news, the company's stock price rose by nearly five percent, a move interpreted by market observers as a positive reaction to the game gaining access to a broader PC marketplace.
