The Epic Game Store’s 15 Days of Free Games promotion is winding down with Mortal Shell, an action role-playing game from Cold Symmetry that is available to claim at no cost until tomorrow, 12/29/2022 at 11:00 a.m. ET.

“Mortal Shell is a deep action-RPG that tests your sanity and resilience in a shattered world,” reads a description of the game published by Playstack, which normally costs $29.99. “Your adversaries spare no mercy, with survival demanding superior awareness and precision. Possess lost warriors, discover hidden sanctums, and face formidable foes.”

Mortal Shell’s marketed points include:

  • Possess Lost Warriors
    • The lost remains of defeated warriors are yours to discover. Awaken these Mortal Shells, occupy their bodies, and master unique combat styles.
  • Iron Sharpens Iron
    • Combat is strategic, deliberate, and unforgiving. Commit your sword only when an opportunity opens.
  • Face Formidable Foes
    • Your path is guarded by adversaries, devoted to inscrutable gods. Behold creatures both pitiable and grotesque and muster your courage and face them down.

Mortal Shell: Enhanced Edition, an improved version of the game that features 60 FPS, 4K resolution, “ultra hi-quality” textures, and other improvements was released for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 consoles in March 2021, followed by a limited physical run of the Mortal Shell: Game of the Year Edition, featuring a SteelBook, holographic artwork postcards, and more.

The Epic Games Store’s 15 Days of Free Games promotion is expected to conclude tomorrow with a free Dishonored game, as hinted by the current teaser with the Mark of the Outsider symbol, which can be found on protagonist Corvo Attano’s hand.

The Dishonored games include Dishonored: Definitive Edition, Dishonored 2, and Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, a standalone chapter that was released in 2017.
