Risk insanity in the gruesome slash-em-up Morbid: The Lords of Ire, with brutal combat and souls-like elements. Defeat the five Lords of Ire as you fight for your life across tortured landscapes, rending the evil Gahars of their flesh-bound forms.
About the story
Even in defeat, the Gahars never truly die. They retreat into darkness and bide their time until the opportunity to arise again is upon them... Morbid: The Lords of Ire is a continuation and reinvention of the critically acclaimed isometric Souls-like ARPG “Morbid: The Seven Acolytes” with the heroic Striver returning once more to do battle with horrific creatures in a dark and twisted world of pain and suffering.

Critic Reviews
Pure Nintendo
By David TempleMorbid: The Lords of Ire is another in a long line of fighter games trying to be gory for gore's sake. Although it's mostly well done, there's not much to differentiate it from the rest of the pack. Its visual quirks can be ignored, but it still seems to be a little less than what it could be.
TheSixthAxis
By Steve CMorbid: Lords of Ire is not a game that'll usurp the FromSoft throne in any way but it is a very solid and enjoyable second tier Soulslike that stands alongside titles like Thymesia and is well worth the relatively cheap entry price for genre fans. It takes clear influence from Sekiro in its parry based combat but is relatively accessible for players who might bounce off that game's difficulty level.
Nintendo Blast
By Victor Hugo CarretaMorbid: Lords of Ire outlined great potential in its calls. I had never played a soulslike until two weeks ago; I confess that I didn't have the best of experiences, and Morbid contributed to that. Wrong decisions, especially technical ones, greatly affect the game's performance. Even with a somewhat interesting combat system, with combination options that add value, one positive point does not justify another nine (being very modest) negatives.

By Jakub Pokorn�The new addition to the Souls genre doesn't blow your mind, but it has quite acceptable content that you won't get bored of.
Smash Jump
By Luke GittensMorbid The Lords of Ire is a slightly above average game that tries to reinvent certain aspects of the Soulslike formula, but falls somewhat short.
