The beta for Mortal Shell 2 was released alongside a trailer shown at the 2026 Summer Game Fest. Players can now try the game ahead of its full launch.
Key changes include a revised hardening mechanic. It is now linked to a specific Seal item that players equip, which affects build options. Seals allow variations such as adjusted parry windows or ranged posture breaks.
The original Shell system remains in place with fixed stat roles for each character. No release date has been announced for the full game.
