This could be the game of 2026 and it would be the rebirth of Ubisoft in its lowest hours

Morbid Metal is a new frantic shooter that promises to captivate players with its combination of third-person combat, intense action, and RPG elements.

Developed by the independent studio SCREEN JUICE and published by Ubisoft, the game aims to stand out in a landscape where fast-paced shooters often go unnoticed.

A game that could be the indie of the year

Using the concept of ‘Triple-I’, Morbid Metal presents a low-budget title with attractive graphics, thus appealing to an audience eager for addictive gaming experiences.

The gaming experience revolves around a roguelite model, where players navigate through procedurally generated scenarios, where the difficulty curve is minimized to facilitate learning and rapid progression.

Players can switch between up to four heroes, each with unique abilities, adding a layer of strategic complexity to combat. However, this variety comes with a challenge: all characters share the same health, requiring quick reading of the environment and precise execution to avoid being defeated.

As players delve into intense battles, their skills to combine attacks and evade enemies will be put to the test. The progression structure focuses on improving each hero after completing challenges, although some critics point out that the variety of enemies could become repetitive in the long run. Still, the system promises to keep the gameplay cycle fresh, as random skills and upgrades are offered in each match.

With an early release scheduled for April 8 and improvements on the way, Morbid Metal presents itself as an interesting addition to the indie catalog, promising to offer hours of fun without the need for a deep narrative approach. Anticipation is growing among action game enthusiasts and those seeking constant challenges.
