Valor Mortis' acrobatic new demo makes me want to believe it's a soulslike prequel to Ghostrunner
The new demo for Valor Mortis, a Napoleonic first-person soulslike from Ghostrunner developers One More Level, introduces acrobatic movement and wallrunning alongside its tense, close-quarters saber combat. The game is set to release on September 24th, 2026, and features a distinct first-person perspective that enhances the feeling of facing imposing enemies. While the parkour elements feel somewhat separate from the core combat, they are reminiscent of One More Level's previous work on Ghostrunner.
