What this wiki covers
Mortal Shell II is a standalone dark-fantasy action RPG developed by Cold Symmetry and published by Playstack. You play as the Harbinger, possess fallen warriors called Shells, and fight through a compact, interconnected open world on a quest to reclaim the stolen eggs of the Undermether.
Combat removes the stamina gauge and emphasizes agile attacks, posture breaking, executions, ranged sidearms, and free Shell respecs. Wandering is rewarded with new Shells, weapons, upgrades, lore, and more than 60 dungeons.
