[3][4] On March 13, 2020, the band unveiled a new single titled "Breaking the Mirror" along with an accompanying lyric video.
[6] On July 10, the band released the second single "God of Fire" featuring Ryo Kinoshita of Crystal Lake.
"[12] CaliberTV scored the album 7 out of 10 and said: "Fit for a King are on to greener pastures and, undoubtedly, tomorrow's answer to a Killswitch Engage or As I Lay Dying.
FIT FOR A KING don't do originality, but they write great songs and some of these cuts will be stuck in your head for days.
This is refined, professional and if you can make it to the end without wanting to find a stage to jump off, you're made of stronger stuff than us.
"[15] Jesus Freak Hideout rated the album 4 out of 5 and said: "Dark Skies was the sound of a band perfecting music they were comfortable with.
By departing somewhat from their former sound, The Path ushers in moments that just don't fit as well (e.g., parts of 'God of Fire' or 'Vendetta') and, consequently, misses on the cohesion that Dark Skies had.
"[17] Rock 'N' Load praised the album saying, "The Path is full of all the aspects that make enjoyable Metalcore, from the soaring vocals to the shattering breakdowns, you will be testing your lung capacity whilst joining in with the vocals and then smashing anything in range as the drums pick up and the pit becomes chaotic with the heavy aspects.
