Mortal Shell 2

Which of the eight to main, and what actually gates each one.

Every shell mapped, plus the two we have not verified yet.

All ten main bosses in order, with the region each sits in.

49 beacons, 46 to cleanse, and the three that start clean.

Every key and the one door it opens. They are not interchangeable.

Gloomshade Grove early, the Emberseed elite loop late.

Three seals, three defensive layers, one break meter.

What they amplify, and the Etching Needle errand people miss.

53 trophies, 3 missable, 40 to 60 hours to platinum.

Where to Go First

The opening route through Fainweald, and which shell to claim before your first real boss.

Harden, Guard & Parry

Three defensive layers, three different seals — and when the red sigil means you should not stand and block.

Gloom Farming

Gloomshade Grove early, the Emberseed sidearm loop later, and the tarstone you should never farm without.

All Shell Locations

Where each of the eight permanent shells is buried, and what you must kill first to claim it.

Mortal Shell 2 Shells

Shells are the bodies you possess. There are eight permanent ones, plus Harros, who carries you through the prologue and is then gone for good.

Mortal Shell 2 Weapons

Sixteen pieces of gear in total — eight melee weapons and eight sidearms — spread across three stretches of the game.

Mortal Shell 2 Boss Order

Ten main bosses. The last four all sit inside the Unfound Path, which is where the game stops easing you in.

Mortal Shell 2 Map

Everything worth marking on a map, starting with the 49 beacons that form your fast-travel and cleansing network.

Mortal Shell 2 Keys

The keys look similar in your inventory and they are not interchangeable. Here is which one opens what.

Mortal Shell 2 Guides

Start with the opening route, then the defensive layers. Everything else is easier once those two click.
