The indie Soulslike game Mortal Shell can be grabbed for free on the Epic Games Store, though you only have a few more hours to do it.
The indie Soulslike game Mortal Shell, released by Cold Symmetry (developer) and Playstack (publisher) in August 2020, is currently free to add to your Epic Games Store library until 5 PM today.
The game was initially known as Dungeonhaven before changing its title. When it finally launched as Mortal Shell, the Soulslike title got a 7.7 out of 10 in Wccftech’s official review penned by Kai Powell.
Mortal Shell is an interesting case where the Souls formula can be put to good use in an action RPG that doesn’t need excessive padding or leveling to tell its story. While its incredibly short by Soulslikes standards, the unique defensive approaches to combat and the synergy of weapons/shells give Mortal Shell its own niche in the growing genre.
