All reviews Mortal Shell 2

Great game, the more skill you have, the easier it is. The new patch made some bosses significantly easier.

ps. Special thanks for the money.

A pretty good Souls game with animations and atmosphere that have improved since the first game. I definitely recommend it.

This is a must-have. A huge leap from the first game. Everything is perfect here. There are cool animations. The world is large, but not as large as Elden's, which can sometimes feel overwhelming. There's a good soundtrack and, most importantly, the atmosphere of that very deep, dark fantasy.

A crooked Souls replacement from people who still seriously believe that hardcore is a 5-minute marathon from checkpoint to boss through 20 ambushes and carefully placed explosive barrels around every corner. The developers pompously cut the stamina bar, forgetting to warn that swing animations here take forever, and any ragamuffin in rags doesn't care about a stunlock from a huge axe and glides on invisible skates across the entire location with a 180-degree homing strike. Leveling is a whole other clown show: you farm the local currency for hours to get a hefty 1% damage boost or one hit point, and then they'll fleece you for resetting weapon leveling resources, completely discouraging any desire to experiment with builds.

I played the beta, finished it in one sitting, and I don't regret it at all. The lore is interesting, the atmosphere is cool. The game mechanics are seamless. The opportunity to have a musical duel with Baba Yaga is 10/10.

It wasn't bad at first. No stamina, which is fine, just hit and dodge as much as you want. But the further into the forest you go, the bigger the tomatoes. Obscurantists of all stripes, sometimes in huge numbers. And I won't even mention their HP bars.

I liked almost everything, with the exception of some bosses whose attacks are difficult to read, a sense of unfairness towards the player, and the poorly written lore of the universe, environments, and characters. Otherwise, everything is top-notch: the visuals, optimization, animations, and sound are heads and shoulders above the first game, and no worse than Souls.

A dark, atmospheric soulslike where every death teaches patience. The world is full of ruins, mysteries, and ruthless enemies, and the location design is mesmerizing. The combat system has become more dynamic: without a stamina bar, battles feel sharper and more honest. Skins offer different playstyles, encouraging experimentation. The difficulty is balanced: the game is demanding but fair. The visuals, powered by Unreal Engine 5, are impressive, and the soundtrack enhances the oppressive mood. For fans of the genre, this is a must-play experience, full of tension and the beauty of decay.
