M\u00f6rk Borg<\/em> is spreading its dark tendrils off the tabletop and onto Steam. Originally released in 2020 by Free League Publishing, M\u00f6rk Borg<\/em> has been the undisputed, award-winning breakout hit from the Old School Renaissance world of game design. The tabletop role-playing game strips back the d20 ruleset to its most deadly and fill the empty space with bright and harrowing death metal-inspired art, equal parts vicious and colorful, like its mechanics. <\/p>

On September 24th, indie game designer Morbidware announced that they were working on a new video game inspired by M\u00f6rk Borg<\/em>‘s world, deadliness, and art design. The game is called M\u00f6rk Borg<\/em> Heresy Supreme<\/em>. The game is a 2D action sidescroller, and the Steam page makes its dark promises of death with a “Roguelike” tag. From what very little of the game we have seen so far, it resembles its peers like Blasphemous<\/em> and Corpse Keeper<\/em>.<\/p>

M\u00f6rk Borg Heresy Supreme<\/em> vows not to forget its OSR roots, featuring RPG elements in the form of stats and rolled skill checks. As the Steam page threatens<\/a>, “You should always put your life in the hands of a die roll. That’s why it’s called a die roll.” In many ways, the game promises a mix of gory gorgeousness and the knowledge that you will churn through many, many characters before you finally reach the end of its pitch-black apocalypse. <\/p>

Mordbidware’s previous game was The Textorcist<\/em>, an exorcism-based bullet hell typing game, which only makes this partnership with M\u00f6rk Borg<\/em> make more sense as I say it. M\u00f6rk Borg Heresy Supreme<\/em> announced<\/a> a Kickstarter to fund this new digital vision of their surreal hellscape. The Kickstarter goes live on October 1<\/a>, and the game is said to be released in late 2025.<\/p>

The tabletop game advises you to burn your book; I suppose now we should burn our PCs too. I just hope they’ve kept the femur club. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
