You see, in the original version of Mortal Shell, I could never get on with parrying attacks, as the window of opportunity to successfully perform a parry seemed to be over in the blink of an eye. Much as it did in the remake of Dark Souls that was released a while ago, the increase in frame rate makes the game a whole different kettle of fish. Now, personally, I wouldn’t know 1880P if I fell over it, but the 60FPS inclusion is a game changer.

A little research will show there are a number of videos showing the differences between the two next-gen versions of Mortal Shell: Enhanced Edition, and while I have no interest in virtual willy waving, it does appear that the the Xbox Series X is somewhat better at running the game, with 60FPS achieved at a claimed 1880P resolution. If you already own Mortal Shell on last-gen platforms, you’ll be happy to know that upgrading to the Enhanced Edition comes at the low price of "free". For newcomers, expect to part with $29.99 to purchase the game standalone.The headline figures are pretty good on the new hardware, it has to be said. Maybe I'll finally dive back in with this new-gen upgrade. I personally enjoyed what I played of Mortal Shell, but didn’t finish it due to getting sidetracked with other games. Players can also "harden" their shells to block and counter attacks. Die a second time, and you’ll be greeted by the Game Over screen. Dying once ejects you out of your shell, freezing time to provide a few seconds to jump back in. Players control a fragile being who can inhabit and swap between various empty bodies, or shells, that essentially act as traditional classes. However, Mortal Shell separates itself with its soul-separating mechanic. It proudly (or shamelessly) wears its Dark Souls inspirations on its sleeves, featuring a largely similar combat and progression system and oppressive atmosphere. Mortal Shell was an under-the-radar releases last year. The trailer below provides side-by-side comparisons between the original game and the Enhanced Edition. Players will feel subtle sensations including heartbeats and whispers, as well as the haptic feedback of arrows and other projectiles whizzing by. The game also takes advantage of the DualSense’ haptic capabilities for greater immersion while cutting down all manner of monstrosities. Mortal Shell: Enhanced Edition boasts upscaled 4K visuals with improved textures and targeted 60fps gameplay. This upgraded edition introduces new visual and performance improvements to make an already respectable experience even better. In a similar manner, the game has found new platforms to inhabit: the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Mortal Shell is coming to Sony and Microsoft's new-gen consoles on March 4 (that's tomorrow!).
The game bleeds Dark Souls through and through, but features a unique twist by allowing players to take control of various bodies to use in combat. Mortal Shell served as a solid offering to Souls fans when it launched in August 2020.
