<p>Mortal Shell is an interesting new <a href="https://bagogames.com/wolfenstein-youngblood-review-an-rpg-coop-game-for-the-ages/">action RPG</a> that looks inspired by From Software&#8217;s titles. The game was revealed last week and is being developed by the all-new developer Symmetry, and published by PlayStack.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center">Mortal Shell Details</h3>
<p>Players will take on the role of a humanoid vessel amidst a world plagued with monsters, and will be tasked to &#8220;track down hidden sanctums of devout followers&#8221; and &#8220;harvest the sacred glands.&#8221; To achieve this goal and conquer your foes, you&#8217;ll have to possess the Mortal Shells of past warriors to gain their lost abilities. Each type of mortal shell will serve as a class of its own with skill trees assigned to them. Players will be able to strengthen their bond with each shell to upgrade abilities and weapons.</p>

<p>Developer Cold Symmetry mentions that Mortal Shell was &#8220;built upon the ruthless traditions of the Souls-like genre.&#8221; So it&#8217;ll also have similar gameplay mechanics. The game features strategic combat, which includes dodging and parrying attacks, not unlike <a href="https://bagogames.com/sekiro-shadows-die-twice-review/">Sekiro&#8217;s</a> combat system. Its also stated that magic would play a significant role in Mortal Shell, and the game will have a nonlinear campaign.</p>
<p>The visuals look impressive and have an interesting take on magic, with both ice and fire magic seen in the trailer above. Cold Symmetry, the team working on this, is a studio of just 15 people, which is pretty impressive for a game of this caliber. The game looks very interesting, and while similar to the <a href="https://bagogames.com/a-sucker-for-punishment-whats-the-problem-with-the-dark-souls/">FromSoftware games,</a> it seems like it&#8217;ll build upon those elements in a more unique way than seen before. I look forward to seeing how well they do with that.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.mortalshell.com/" target="_blank">Mortal Shell</a> is slated to launch in Q3 2020 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. You can find out more details on its official site.</p>
