After plenty of time with it, I'm convinced Mortal Shell 2 is an excellent Soulslike, with various overhauls allowing it to realise the vision of the original
Mortal Shell 2 is an excellent Soulslike that builds upon its predecessor with significant overhauls and a confident design. The game features faster combat without a stamina bar, a new Resolve mechanic, and deeper customization through its Shell system. While boss fights are a weak point, the overall experience offers a dense world and engaging moment-to-moment gameplay, making it a strong contender in the genre.
