I have been tracking Valor Mortis closely since its initial announcement last year. After spending time with the demo, I can confidently say it stands out as one of my most anticipated releases. Fortunately, the wait is nearly over: the game is officially slated to arrive on September 24 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
This release window was unveiled alongside a haunting, narrative-driven trailer during today’s Xbox Games Showcase. The footage peels back the grim layers of this distinctive first-person soulslike, developed by the talented team behind the critically acclaimed Ghostrunner series. Players step into the boots of William, a fallen soldier resurrected to navigate a fractured, dark-fantasy reimagining of the Napoleonic Wars, where he must grapple with the heavy burdens of loyalty, fate, and the collapse of an empire.
Watch the official Valor Mortis announcement trailer below:
“When the emperor demands your service, will you falter, or will you sacrifice everything for your nation?” the game’s official synopsis asks. “Channel forbidden supernatural abilities, confront nightmarish adversaries, and unravel a web of conspiracy that threatens to consume humanity in the wake of Napoleon’s insatiable ambition.”
Prepare to test your mettle when Valor Mortis launches on September 24, 2026.
