One More Level says *Valor Mortis* is now targeting a Fall 2026 release after showing a new trailer at the Triple-i Initiative showcase on April 9. (pressreleases.triplepointpr.com) The studio describes the game as a single-player, first-person “soulslike,” a style built around hard fights, repeated deaths, and learning enemy patterns through trial and error. It is planned for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S, and personal computers through Steam. (omlgames.com, gematsu.com) The new footage showed wall-running, a grapple hook, parries, dodges, pistols, and a rapier, extending the fast first-person movement One More Level used in the *Ghostrunner* series into a slower, heavier combat format. (pressreleases.triplepointpr.com, insider-gaming.com) The setting is an alternate 19th-century Europe where Napoleon Bonaparte has conquered the continent and a plague has transformed the war into supernatural horror. Players control William, a dead soldier of the Grande Armée who returns with plague powers in his body and Napoleon’s voice guiding him. (omlgames.com, gematsu.com) That release window is the clearest timing the game has received so far. Earlier public store listings and descriptions had pointed only to 2026, while the April 9 announcement narrowed that to the fall. (fextralife.com, insider-gaming.com) The update also sharpens what One More Level is selling: not another cyberpunk runner, but a historical-fantasy action role-playing game with “Metroidvania-inspired” level design, meaning maps that open up gradually as players gain new movement tools and abilities. (omlgames.com, pressreleases.triplepointpr.com) One More Level is based in Kraków, Poland, and is best known for *Ghostrunner* and *Ghostrunner 2*, two first-person action games built around parkour and precise timing. *Valor Mortis* keeps that camera perspective but shifts the pace toward stamina-based melee combat and boss fights. (pressreleases.triplepointpr.com, omlgames.com) The publisher on the project is Lyrical Games, which joined the April 9 announcement and said the game is coming this fall on current-generation consoles and personal computers. Pricing and a specific launch date have not been announced. (gematsu.com, pressreleases.triplepointpr.com) For now, the clearest takeaway is that *Valor Mortis* has moved from a vague 2026 target to a defined Fall 2026 window, with One More Level using the new trailer to show exactly how its first-person Souls formula is supposed to work.
