In our Mortal Shell review, Jason said: “Mortal Shell is just an incredibly satisfying experience. It will constantly punish you, but if you can master the mechanics it presents in front of you, you’ll have an incredible time. The story is a bit more obvious than in other soulslikes, and the story it tells and the world it places you in are both pretty exciting. It’s definitely a game that die-hard fans will really enjoy, but it’s probably not for everyone.”
Mortal Shell II will be available on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series XS.
