Mortal Shell 2 is set to expand upon the original in almost every way, though it might be a title that slips under some people’s radars. Positive reviews might be something to help gain your attention, and we know when the embargo is ready to be lifted.
With over 80 dungeons to explore and a dense open world to trudge through, Mortal Shell 2 simply needs to be on your radar. The action RPG is returning bigger and better than ever, so let’s see if the game reviews as well as it’s hyping up to be.

For those happy with the standard edition, you’ll be waiting until August 20 to play the game, but that would still give you three days to sit with reviews and decide if the game sounds like something you’d be interested in. Generally speaking, if you’re a fan of brutal soulslike adventures, this one might be for you, but time will tell if the review scores tell the same story.
