Valor Mortis is the next game from One More Level, one of the studio's behind first-person fast-paced cyberpunk sci-fi action platformer, Ghostrunner. It was first revealed back at Gamescom 2025, where Wccftech's Francesco De Meo got to check it out and called it one of the best games at the showcase. Now, we're finally starting to get closer to its release, as One More Level reveals a new release window for Fall 2026.
The news came as part of Valor Mortis' inclusion in the Triple-I Initiative Showcase 2026, where it showed off new gameplay and capped off the trailer with a release window reveal. The trailer showed off new parkour features, new combat mechanics, and overall showed off more of the intense action players can look forward to.
The studio then followed up the Triple-I Showcase trailer with a bit of a developer deep-dive, digging more into what the trailer showed, and confirming a few more details about how the game is progressing in its development.
For one thing, the game is officially content complete, and the studio is currently working on getting is alpha version buttoned up. It's clear that the studio is closing in on the final stages of Valor Mortis' development, so hopefully it's not too much longer until that Fall 2026 release window becomes a proper release date. The studio also confirmed as much in a post on the game's Steam page, saying that this reveal "marks our sprint to the final stretch of development."
"There's still a lot to do as we push towards launch in Fall 2026! Since Ghostrunner 2, we have been working very hard to craft Valor Mortis as the biggest game our studio has ever made. We know that we'll need to prove ourselves. We don't think anyone has mixed first-person perspective and the soulslike genre in this way before. So far, we've already used lots of your feedback from the original playtest but we will be looking for more people to try the game soon."
