Now that it’s back on Game Pass, you really need to give this underrated Souls-like a go Leave a comment
Technically, this isn’t Mortal Shell’s Game Pass debut. It’s actually the second time it joins the service, having left last November. It’s a little unusual for a game to leave and return a few weeks later, but we’re not complaining.
Mortal Shell also joined the PlayStation Plus Premium and Extra line-ups just before the end of the year, meaning you can play the indie Souls-like on virtually every major platform right now. The even better news is that you’re getting the Enhanced Edition of the game, which shines on new consoles thanks to higher-quality visuals and a smoother 60fps framerate.
Mortal Shell is not only a good Game Pass get for Souls-like fans who never played it, it also serves as an entry point into the genre. I know of more than one person who got hooked after playing it, which is quite rare given the quality of Souls-likes not made by FromSoftware.
