Lords of the Fallen is available at Mascom International for KSh 4,500 as a PS5 physical disc, brand new and sealed, in the Deluxe Edition shown on our shelf. Developed by Hexworks and published by CI Games, Lords of the Fallen is a soulslike action RPG that launched in October 2023 with an ESRB Mature rating. This edition adds the Dark Crusader starting class and gear, a digital artbook and the soundtrack. Pick up Lords of the Fallen at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for delivery to any county.
Console players in Nairobi, Mombasa and Kisumu who have already cleared Demon's Souls or Elden Ring often ask what to play next. Lords of the Fallen answers with a twist on the usual punishing loop. In most soulslike games, one death can wipe out an hour of careful progress. Here, falling in Axiom, the realm of the living, drops you into Umbral, the realm of the dead, where you can fight your way back. That safety net suits patient adults who enjoy hard bosses but have limited evening hours, and co-op lets a friend share the load.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell opened or resealed game discs without a receipt, Mascom International hands over a factory-sealed copy and stands behind the disc itself. Buyers throughout Kenya tell us the Deluxe Edition extras make the opening hours easier, since the Dark Crusader gear normally appears much later in the game. Lords of the Fallen also pairs well with a second DualSense controller if you plan to pass the console around. Visit the Kimathi Street store to collect a copy today, or order online and pay only when the parcel reaches your door.
Common Questions About the Lords of the Fallen
How much is Lords of the Fallen Deluxe Edition for PS5 in Kenya?
Lords of the Fallen Deluxe Edition costs KSh 4,500 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, sold as a PS5 physical disc. That price covers the full game plus every Deluxe Edition extra named on the cover, and the disc carries a 6-month Mascom International warranty. Delivery is pay-on-arrival, so you settle by M-Pesa or cash once the parcel is in your hands. You also avoid downloading the whole game, because it installs from the disc, though patches still arrive online.
What does the Lords of the Fallen Deluxe Edition add over the standard game?
The Lords of the Fallen Deluxe Edition adds the Dark Crusader starting class and the matching Dark Crusader armour and weapon set. That set includes Isaac's Longsword, Holy Light explosives, a full armour set and the Paladin's Pendant, items that would otherwise turn up late in the game. You also get a 100-page digital artbook, a digital soundtrack by Cris Velasco and Knut Avenstroup Haugen, and a 3D model viewer. The main campaign stays the same, so the extras shape your opening hours rather than adding story.
Lords of the Fallen vs Elden Ring, which should I buy?
Pick Elden Ring for a vast open world crossed on horseback; pick Lords of the Fallen for a tighter, connected world built around two parallel realms. Elden Ring launched in February 2022, while Lords of the Fallen arrived in October 2023 on Unreal Engine 5 and later received a Version 2.0 overhaul. Co-op differs too: a friend can join Lords of the Fallen through the Free Friends Pass without owning a copy, whereas each Elden Ring player needs the game. Mascom International stocks both in Nairobi, alongside Demon's Souls.
Can I play Lords of the Fallen online with a friend in Kenya?
Yes, Lords of the Fallen supports online co-op on PS5, and online play requires an active PS Plus membership. Choose a casual session to help a friend through a tough area, or a full shared-progression session where both of you save all progress. The Free Friends Pass lets the host invite someone who has not bought the game. A home connection such as Safaricom Home Fibre, Zuku or Faiba keeps sessions steady, while weak mobile data can drop you mid-fight. Solo play needs no internet, so co-op stays optional.
Do I need internet or steady power to play Lords of the Fallen on PS5?
Internet matters only for updates and online features; the campaign plays offline once Lords of the Fallen installs from the disc. Connect once after installing to pull down the latest patches, including the Version 2.0 rework of combat and performance, since an earlier pressing may predate them. Power cuts are the bigger risk in many Kenyan homes. A blackout during a save can damage game data, so a UPS behind your PS5 is cheap protection, and Mascom International stocks UPS units at the same Kimathi Street store.
Will this Lords of the Fallen disc work on a PS5 Digital Edition or a PS4?
This Lords of the Fallen disc runs on any PS5 that has a disc drive. A PS5 Digital Edition reads it only after you attach Sony's separate Disc Drive, which plugs into the console. It will not play on a PS4, because the disc holds the PS5 version of the game. PS5 games are not region-locked, so a copy bought at Mascom International plays on consoles brought home from Dubai, the UK or the US. Sony also lists the game with a PS5 Pro badge for owners of that console.
Is Lords of the Fallen too hard for a beginner?
Lords of the Fallen is demanding, but it gives newcomers more room to recover than most games in its genre. Die in Axiom and you wake in Umbral with a second chance to fight your way out before losing progress. The Umbral Lamp also lets you peer into that hidden realm to spot paths and items. Deluxe Edition owners can start as a Dark Crusader with that armour already equipped from the first hour. Expect to learn each boss through repeated attempts, as with any soulslike title.
Who should buy Lords of the Fallen, and who should skip it?
Buy Lords of the Fallen if you enjoyed Demon's Souls or Elden Ring and want another demanding fantasy RPG with optional co-op. It suits patient players who like learning enemy patterns and hunting for hidden routes. Skip it if you are buying for anyone under 18, because it carries an ESRB Mature rating and an IARC 18+ rating for extreme violence and strong language. Families shopping for younger players should look at LEGO Star Wars instead, and anyone wanting a gentler adventure may prefer Kena, both at Mascom International.
