Anticipation builds among gaming enthusiasts as Mohrta, a sci-fi/fantasy first-person shooter crafted by the creative minds of Scumhead and Osiol, gears up for its official release on October 14, 2025. Developed using the classic Doom/GZDoom engine, this new title is set to provide players with an immersive retro gaming experience coupled with unique modern twists.
The Gameplay Experience
In Mohrta, players step into the shoes of an enigmatic interdimensional assassin. The character is depicted clad in formidable full armor paired with a distinctive gas mask and wide-brimmed helmet. Armed to the teeth, players can wield a diverse arsenal ranging from medieval swords to fast-firing pistols, trench shotguns, and even playing-card shuriken. The game’s offering of dual flails ensures no two combat encounters feel the same, maintaining excitement throughout.
Explore and Conquer Unique Worlds
Drawing inspiration from the hub system popularized by Demon's Souls, Mohrta invites players to explore an interdimensional bazaar hub. From there, players can venture into distinctive worlds, each offering its own set of challenges and aesthetics. Available for demo play is a serene foothill area adorned with Greco-Roman ruins and haunted by skeletal adversaries. Other realms teased include a death wasteland evocative of Beksiński's haunting art and a surreal desert home to gigantic sand worms, providing varied environments and adversaries to overcome.
The Legacy of the Engine
The title cleverly integrates the time-honored technology of the GZDoom engine with innovative art design and level construction. This balance of nostalgia and modernity sets Mohrta apart in the crowded field of FPS games while showcasing the inventive potential of the Doom engine when paired with fresh creative vision.
Though the full release is slated for October 14, eager players can delve into the demo to get an early taste of what Mohrta has to offer. With its unique blend of retro styling and contemporary gameplay mechanics, Mohrta promises to be a standout addition to the FPS genre. Players looking to jump into this intriguing universe can wishlist the game now, ensuring they don't miss out on its scifi-infused adventures come release day.
