Valor Mortis Sets $39.99 Price For October 13 Launch, Deluxe Edition At $59.99
One More Level is pricing its own game against a crowded fall window rather than its quality, a concession that says fall release slots now cost more in player attention than a $70 price tag can recover.
Reporting from 1 source: Game Spark.
One More Level and Lyrical Games will release Valor Mortis, a first-person soulslike action RPG, on October 13 for PC via Microsoft Store and Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S with Japanese language support. The base game costs $39.99, below what the publisher says full-price titles command, and a $59.99 Deluxe Edition adds a major story DLC planned for 2027 plus cosmetic packs. Free post-launch updates are planned.
The $39.99 tag is not a discount. One More Level says the game's visual fidelity and roughly 20-hour story campaign compare to full-price releases, and the lower number is a response to how many titles share the fall window and how limited players' time and money are.
The Deluxe Edition at $59.99 bundles the main game with a major story DLC set for 2027 and multiple cosmetic packs. Free updates with new elements are planned after release. Players control William, a Grande Armée soldier resurrected into a plague-wracked 19th century Europe, fighting Napoleon's Old Guard.
