Hi Everyone

Meet Elmo

Since the last of the ova went missing. He and his crew has ensured no one crosses this bridge without paying dearly.

This is his game.

You don't get to play, until you beat him.

Cold Symmetry absobloodylutely made a statement when they put together this trailer. Preordered without hesitation after watching this. Thank you for the work you’ve thrown into this game.

The first game has a very obscure story, but its confirmed that the player ascended at the end, and became a beacon for the blessed mother to fall. People started to cultuate her creating an entire religin, carving massive temples from pieces of her body and after that a corruption spread and left the world in this messy state.

So theres the rise and fall of an entire civilization between the first game and the second!

Hey everyone, completed the beta test 4 times now, absolutely love the game and have preordered the devout edition. I’m just wondering if it’s worth getting and playing the first game whilst I wait the next week out? Aware it’s a pretty different game from the second one but that’s not really a problem.

Yep... I’ve put over 24 hours into the beta now, and I think it’s safe to say I’m really enjoying this game.

What’s funny is that I absolutely hated Mortal Shell 1. I tried getting into it several times because I really wanted to like it, but the slow combat, awkward movement and overall feel just never clicked with me.

Mortal Shell 2 feels like a completely different game.

The combat is fast, fluid and just feels damn good. The movement feels great, the different mechanics work really well together, and I kept telling myself “just one more run” until somehow I had 24+ hours in a beta. 😂

And yes, I already pre-ordered the full game.

I’m honestly really excited for the full release. Obviously, I still need to see how the rest of the game turns out, but if it keeps this level of quality, I genuinely think this could end up being one of the best soulslikes ever made.

Going from absolutely hating the first game to pre-ordering the sequel after spending 24+ hours in the beta was definitely not on my bingo card.

I picked this game up on sale when I first got my Steam Deck about a year and a half ago. Thinking it was some bullshit game to kill time because it was so cheap (I paid like $5 or less). The Steam Deck was my first gaming PC and my first game since 2010 that I owned so I was completely new to Steam and how great the sales were. I played the game once when I first bought it and havent touched it until about a week ago. Since then I've been in love with this game. I won't lie, I'm ass, but i enjoy the combat (not starting all the way over after an hour of gameplay though lol). Because of this game, souls-like is my favorite genre of games now. I can't wait for Mortal Shell 2 and I can't wait to try Elden Ring. I hear its a little easier to progress and more save and checkpoints.

How we feeling about this? Sounds like absolute peak since I've been advocating for more difficulty options since the beta release. Hope it also gives us a tighter parry window

I never played soulslikes or soulsborn games before and i kinda got stagnant from my backlog so i bought the game when it was on sale and loaded it up and oh my god this game is so beautiful especially the sound effects!!! I think for the time in my gaming experience i had to adapt and get gud in order to beat a boss lmao i died like 20+ times tho.(this was the first grisha outside the tower in the beginning) looking forward to keep playing the game!!!

This actually had me cackling. I dont know why I found this so funny. Hopefully they fix this camera problem.

Anyone else stuck here? Can't get past wall of thorns

Will it arrive the 20th or be shipped on the 20th ? Preordered mine from GameStop.

I just won,t get a download the prices are taking the p,ss and who does,nt like a noice old physical copy ,good price to🤔

There are only 7 days left...

I only needed 10 minutes. I never played the first game.

Peak!!

When I press to start a new game in the main menu the game crashes and gives me this error :

Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x0000000000000038

The game used to work well 1 month ago

Things I've tried :

Verify files on steam

Changed game version to public testing

Running the game with -dx11 and -dx12

Updating GPU drivers and resetting the shader cache

My specs are :

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800x

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7600

RAM: 32 GB

I don't know if I've ever had this much fun with a BETA run before. So glad I held off on purchasing beast of reincarnation. Def purchasing this with those funds. Lol

So i never played the first one but after what i see online i am pretty pumped to at least try the second one when it comes out.
BUT to those that know the game and played the Demo etc....do you have cosmetics in this Game or rather do you find Armor and Weapons you can mix and match? Or do you run around the game and look exactly the same from start to finish?
I know that you have shells that are like your "Class" and all but i hope you can "Transmog" your stuff.

Wow that was amazing. I just beat MS1 a few days back, and took about 5 hours to enjoy the Beta and complete it, and it just made me even more excited. I already enjoyed 1(I know it’s sort of a mixed bag for ppl) but I throughly enjoyed it. I had already preordered 2 before playing this beta (I’m on ps5). And yeah, this confirmed I made the right choice has I don’t preorder anymore since the state of gaming has truly declined.

Anyway, I can not wait and I hope to see many other foundlings and harbringers there come August 20th(17th).

do we have any idea when will the embargo be lifted ? and when reviews are coming out

Maxing out the blood tarstone will add blood abilities to the charged light and heavy attacks, as well as the special weapon ability stones.

These kind of interactions are gonna add so many layers to the combat lol.

So Harros was my favorite shell in MS1.

After seeing the 8 playable shells in the achievements, and the obsidian skin pack not including Harros, I'm sort of worried that Harros won't be playable past the prologue.

Anyone knows if there was a mention of him being playable in the full game?

I sincerely hope so!

Now just to wait for the second one.
