HexWorks has released Lords of the Fallen new update 1.101 (complete version 1.101.000), and this brings massive co-op improvements to the game, especially when it comes to shared progression.

Alongside that, this patch brings improved matchmaking and a good chunk of bug fixes too.

For the complete details, read on for the patch notes.

Lords of the Fallen Co-op Improvements Applied on April 3

Shared Progression: Expanded Freedom

By popular demand, guest players in Shared Progression Co-op now have significantly more control, creating a more unified experience in your joint battle against the darkness.

Your fellow Lampbearer can now:

  • Upgrade equipment (Sanguinarix, Umbral Lamp, weapons)
  • Socket upgrade items
  • Interact with vendor NPCs
  • Use Chrysalis Rebirth
  • Rest and warp between Vestiges
  • Plant Vestige seeds
  • Begin Boss battles
  • Skip cutscenes

Non-Shared Progression: Custom Privileges

When playing Non-Shared Progression Co-op, you will now have the option to choose whether your guest has Full or Limited privileges.

Limited Privileges

  • Use Chrysalis Rebirth
  • Rest at Vestiges
  • Socket upgrade items
  • Upgrade equipment (Sanguinarix, Umbral Lamp, weapons)
  • Interact with vendor NPCs

Full Privileges

  • Upgrade equipment (Sanguinarix, Umbral Lamp, weapons)
  • Socket upgrade items
  • Interact with vendor NPCs
  • Use Chrysalis Rebirth
  • Rest and warp between Vestiges
  • Plant Vestige seeds
  • Begin Boss battles
  • Skip cutscenes

Improved Matchmaking & Session Flow

Joining forces with another Lampbearer is now simpler and more reliable.

To begin a co-op session:

  • Visit any Vestige and access the Multiplayer menu
  • Set a password and share it with your friend
  • Ensure both players have the same progression settings selected

For matchmaking, simply leave the password field empty.

Bug Fixes & Improvements

  • Fixed an issue where clients could not socket Umbral Eyes into the Umbral Lamp during co-op
  • Fixed an issue where clients could not socket runes into weapons during co-op
  • Fixed the issue with character’s level getting multiplied after using Rebirth Chrysalis in Co-op.
  • Fixed the PS5 DualSense controller not working properly on the Steam version.
  • Improved performance on Steam Deck

While HexWorks is busy updating Lords of the Fallen, the devs are also hard at work on Lords of the Fallen 2, which recently got a new gameplay trailer.
