Description
The Virtuous Cycle is a game-altering roguelike expansion for the award winning Mortal Shell.
Prove your resolve once more, foundling. A blackened sky will be your only certainty as you descend once again through an ever-shifting and never forgiving landscape. Adapt, salvage, invest, and enhance to escape this unending abyss.
"Beware, upon death, a new cycle will begin..."
Carve your own path to deliverance in this self-altering world where no two runs are ever the same. Create your own combat discipline from upgrade pillars that are scattered across Fallgrim and beyond. More than 100 upgrades are yours to inherit, from exotic weapon enhancements to entirely new maneuvers.
Once your elusive teacher, now yours to master. Hadern becomes Mortal Shell’s fifth possessable Shell, playable within both Mortal Shell’s main campaign and The Virtuous Cycle. His unique skill tree unlocks a new domain of innate talents, from dagger mastery to a fearsome ability to absorb punishment.
Fallgrim’s most venerable weapon has been unearthed. In your hands the Axatana bends to your will, assembling itself into a supreme heavy axe when the moment calls, and detaching into lightning-fast dual katanas when you desire. Unique movesets for both stances are yours to unlock.

The Virtuous Cycle DLC is a great addition, beside the new playable Hadern shell that can be modified with all abilities of the base game shells, we also get the ultra-cool Axe-katana hybrid weapon. The new mode adds a

I really, really tried to like this one. Hell, I even enjoyed some of its parts, but this DLC is just terrible. Imagine doing a 3 hour-long run only to die to a glitch that prevents you from attacking or rolling. The

Don't waste your money unless you want a new character to play new game plus with. This has no new bosses or maps or enemies. You basically just go through the same three temples with enemies placed in different

This DLC's souls-rogue mode is definitely not for me, I found it way more monotonous than fun. Maybe it was made for masochists? The new DLC weapon and shell were definitely nice, very powerful, but I didn't find them

I played Virtuous Cycle after playing the campaign for Mortal Shell. It's pretty much the same as the main game - same map - but with some minor differences in gameplay. In Mortal Shell you kill bosses and collect the

This DLC has some pretty compelling content that enhances the game. It does have some real issues that become apparent the more you play though. I’ve spent around 45 hours, more than the main game which lasted me around
