Souls-like, Roguelike Crossover Mortal Rite Unleashed Today for PC via Steam Early Access
Embody resurrected champions and fight to reclaim the shattered lands in Round Toast Studios’ action-packed debut title
Dallas, United States - November 7, 2024. Indie developer Round Toast Studios is thrilled to announce the release of their debut title, Mortal Rite, on PC via Steam Early Access. Mortal Rite is an action-packed crossover between a Souls-like and Roguelike game where gamers fight solo or side-by-side with up to 5 co-op players, utilising swappable abilities and items while using the bodies of resurrected champions.
The core of Mortal Rite is a fast, action-based melee combat system that allows players to trade blows with enemies and rewards strategy over button-mashing. Choose from a variety of characters to embody, each with their own lore, fighting style, and abilities. Overcome enemies by using different skills, strategies, cooperation, collecting and crafting items to stop the encroachment of the king. Play solo or co-op multiplayer from the very start of the game, with a maximum party size of 5. Duel with your friends in the refuge for additional rewards, but be wary, as a larger party size will attract additional enemies.
Mortal Rite is available now for PC via Steam Early Access for $24.99USD / £19.99GBP / €24.99EUR with a limited-time 5% launch discount. Fans can still add Mortal Rite to their Wishlist.
Developer Round Toast Studios has been working hard to deliver a deep and fulfilling Early Access gameplay experience. During this period, there will be frequent game optimizations and content updates as part of the Early Access development roadmap leading to the eventual V1.0 launch.
