Ad Mortem is a mechanically deep and immersive medieval combat experience set in the horrifying & spectacular world of Contrara.
Ad Mortem
SteamAd Mortem is a brutal multiplayer medieval Melee Slasher set in the corrupted world of Contrara. You play as a Vessel, a byproduct of the death of the Old Gods. Your hollow soul prevents your passage into the afterlife, binding you to this world. Through this eternal struggle, you will engage in team-based PvP combat against other Vessels upon the ravaged battlefields of the two warring factions; the Palisadean and the Hantrii. Fight with your allies, slay monsters and men, and delve into the dungeons of the Deities in a mad quest of retribution and power.
• First-Person and Third-Person perspective
• Easy to learn, gloriously rewarding to master
• Skill-based matchmaking

Co-Op Mode – Descend into the Deities’ domains, cut your way through their minions and elude the shadows hunting you and your party. Make haste through the darkness before your Sanity is lost. Survive, explore, and empower your Vessel with hidden knowledge and weapons looted from the Deities’ dungeons.

PVP Modes – Skill-based matchmaking ensures fair yet intense and engaging battles, pitting you against only equally matched Vessels. Prove your mettle in Assault, our focused 5v5 competitive mode with engaging objectives and carefully crafted level design, or dive into the chaos of a more casually oriented 10v10 Assault, where victory ultimately belongs to the unyielding and ferocious. Choose your opponents in a Duelyard, a training ground of chivalrous knights and warriors who will hone your swordsmanship in honourable duels to the death, to then be born again.
Additionally, you can also find a variety of classic modes on Community Servers.
A dark and foreboding world – Immerse yourself as an undying warrior, a Vessel, searching for purpose through never-ending battles.
Savage and gory fights – Highly skilful combat that is simple to learn yet rewarding to master. Revel in the satisfying impact of cutting flesh and crushing bone.
Forge alliances... And crush rivals – Co-Op and PvP promote teamwork and synergy with your brothers and sisters in arms. Strength in unity. Win together, or die in fear – alone.
Character customization and visual progression – outfit your Vessel in elite or rare cosmetics. Let friends bask in your glory, and enemies cower at your presence.
Balanced Matchmaking and Community Servers – We understand that it is not always fun to fight against experienced veterans. Our skill-based matchmaking ensures a fair and equal playing experience. If you wish to seek the most skilled warriors to test your mettle against or learn from – many will be found within Community Servers and Duelyards.
