Mortal Shell is a dark, unforgiving action RPG in the Souls-like tradition. From March 13 to March 20, the Epic Games Store is giving it away for free. It’s a challenging journey through eerie catacombs and swamplands, testing your reflexes and patience at every turn.
Combat emphasizes strategy: you manage stamina, dodge precisely, and use a unique “Harden” mechanic to tank hits. Each weapon has distinct weight and timing, and enemies can kill you quickly if you’re careless. Instead of leveling up a custom character, you inhabit one of four “Shells,” each offering unique strengths and abilities. You can re-enter your Shell if knocked out, giving you a second chance in battle. The game is smaller in scale than a Dark Souls entry, but it’s perfect for those who crave a tough, focused challenge.
The Last of Us I Remake and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandor down by 50%
Alongside Mortal Shell’s freebie, two major titles are discounted to $50. The Last of Us Part I offers a powerful story-driven experience set in a post-apocalyptic world, blending stealth, survival, and emotional storytelling. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora delivers a first-person open-world adventure, letting you play as a Na’vi warrior exploring a vibrant alien landscape and fighting back against human invaders. Both titles are typically more expensive, so this sale is a great chance to snag them at a lower cost.
Don’t Miss the Deadline
Make sure to claim Mortal Shell before March 20 and check out the deals on these two blockbusters while they’re still live. It’s a good week for anyone looking to expand their library with challenging RPG combat and cinematic adventures.
