Playstack has just announced the sequel to Cold Symmetry’s Souls-like game, Mortal Shell 2. Mortal Shell 2 will be released in 2026, and below you can find its debut gameplay trailer.
Mortal Shell 2 is a brand-new sequel to Mortal Shell. According to the devs, it will take everything from the first game and make it even better. The combat is faster and more intense, and weapons have more upgrade choices. Plus, players can explore the world freely without limits.
This action-RPG lets you explore a detailed open world that’s both big and tightly designed. The world is full of strange places and hidden secrets, but it’s made so you don’t waste time getting lost or bored.
Mortal Shell II’s open world is small but full of twists and turns. Dangerous enemies guard the paths, but if you explore, you’ll find new parts of the story, powerful weapons, strange items, upgrades, and new Shells to use. Exploring will be risky, but it will be worth it.
Players will travel through broken-down temples of old gods, dark and dangerous forests, and frozen graveyards. You’ll also explore castles made from bone. Along the way, you’ll find over 60 dungeons. Each one will test your skills and weapons, pushing you to get better as you go.
Mortal Shell 2’s combat will feel fast but controlled. There’s no stamina bar, so players can fight more freely and use different tactics to break an enemy’s defense and land powerful hits. Each Shell has its own special abilities. As you play, you can create your own fighting style and unlock hidden powers by finding lost memories.
Enjoy the trailer and stay tuned for more!
