They have also confirmed that there will be four secret classes to unlock in the game, including the Dark Crusader. The other three classes are linked to each of the three endings in LOTF. This means that you will have to do multiple playthroughs and get all the endings to unlock the various classes in the game.

The game’s Executive Producer, Saul Gascon, and Creative Director, Cezar Virtosu in an interview with MP1st, that the game will take you somewhere around “30 hours more or less” to complete one playthrough and get one of the three endings.

How to get all endings in Lords of the Fallen

There are three endings in Lords of the Fallen, and here’s how you can get all of them.

Radiant Ending

This is the good and the standard ending in Lords of the Fallen and all you have to do is to cleanse all the beacons and defeat Adyr to get this ending.

Adyr Ending

This is the evil ending in Lords of the Fallen as you will side with Adyr in this ending. To get this ending, follow these steps:

Make sure to not cleanse any beacon in your playthrough for this ending.
Once you have reached the Abbey of the Hallowed sisters, you should get the Rune of Adyr.
After defeating The Sundered Monarch in Bramis Castle, talk to the Effigy of Adyr to upgrade the Rune of Adyr to the Empowered Rune of Adyr.
Now go back to the beacons located in the Forsaken Fen, Upper Calrath, Fief of the Chill Curse, Tower of Penance, and The Empyrean and destroy them.
Now all you have to do is defeat Judge Cleric at The Empyrean and talk to the woman in front of the beacon to go inside her mind.
Finally, talk to Iselle using the Empowered Rune of Adyr.

There are three endings with three different routes to follow.

Umbral Ending

This is considered the secret ending in Lords of the Fallen as it is by far the most difficult one to achieve and involves a number of steps to get there. To get this ending, follow these steps:

Just like the previous ending, make sure to not cleanse any beacons.
Further into the game, you will reach the Revelation Depths. Here you will have to defeat both Harrower Dervia the Pledged Knight, and The Unbroken Promise.
Once you defeat this two-phase boss, you will unlock a special altar that asks you to “Seek Scours” after interacting with it.
Go back to Skyrest Bridge buy the Scouring Clump from Molhu, and use it on the mysterious altar to go to Mother’s Lull.
Interact with the friendly enemy here to get Damarose’s Seedpod.
Now go to Pilgrim’s Perch and kill Damarose with it.
Head back to Mother’s Lull and find the next friendly NPC to get Gerlinde’s Seedpod.
If you have rescued Gerlinde from captivity in Pilgrim’s Perch, she will teleport to Skyrest Bridge. Use the pod on her too.
Keep progressing through the game normally and defeat The Lightreaper outside Bramis Castle.
Now you can place The Lightreaper’s Umbral Parasite, an item the boss dropped on a special column in the room where Molhu lives.
Go back to Mother’s Lull again and find the new friendly NPC to get the Melchior’s Seedpod.
Keep progressing until you’ve obtained the Rune of Adyr, and take it and give it to the friendly NPC in Mother’s Lull to get the Withered Rune of Adyr.
Defeat The Sundered Monarch in Bramis Castle, and then use the seedpod on Melchior’s body.
Go back to the Fief of the Chill Curse and go to Umbral to interact with The Iron Wayfarer. Now, use the Withered Rune of Adyr on him to get Harkyn’s Umbral Parasite.
Head back to Skyrest Bridge and put the new parasite into the column in Molhu’s room.
Talk to Molhu to find out about your next prey.
Now you will have to soulflay Pieta to find her parasite and fight Elianne the Starved who you’ll be teleported to.
Defeat the boss for Elianne’s Umbral Parasite.
Use the new parasite on the column in Molhu’s room.
Interact with Molhu and select the “Enter Mother’s Lull” option.
Finally, cross the platforms within Mother’s Lull for the Umbral ending.
