Morkull Ascend to the Gods, the highly anticipated follow-up from Disaster Games and publisher Dojo System, has officially been announced for Nintendo Switch with a planned launch in 2026.
This 2D action game, known for its intense boss battles and charismatic protagonist, aims to build on the vibrant legacy established by its predecessor, Morkull Ragast’s Rage. Building upon the narrative foundations set by Morkull Ragast’s Rage, Morkull Ascend to the Gods once again places players in the role of the God of Death, Morkull.
Imprisoned and acutely aware of his existence within the boundaries of a video game, Morkull enlists the help of the player to break free and pursue his ultimate ambition—world domination within the fantastical realm of the Kingdom of Midaldus. A core element of the gameplay centers on a series of challenging, hand-crafted boss battles against a roster that includes powerful henchmen, cunning minions, and rival deities.
Disaster Games has emphasized the player’s ability to unlock and customize an expansive arsenal of combos and abilities, giving fans substantial freedom to tailor their playstyle before each high-stakes encounter.
As players guide Morkull through these formidable challenges, they can expect a healthy dose of difficulty—alongside countless opportunities to refine their skills and strategies. True to the spirit of both the series and its central character, Morkull Ascend to the Gods features bold fourth-wall breaks, irreverent humor, and a light-hearted tone suffused with pop culture references, memes, and witty banter.
Disaster Games has recreated the hand-drawn art style that defined Morkull Ragast’s Rage, with each character and animation meticulously crafted frame by frame.
This approach ensures fluid, lively movement and a visual identity that stands out among Nintendo Switch platform offerings. Whereas the first title explored the unique environments of Ragast, the sequel expands the adventure to new regions within the Kingdom of Midaldus, boasting a striking color palette and distinct art direction.
Early previews suggest that players will be able to explore a wider array of atmospheric settings and encounter a diverse cast of bosses intent on thwarting Morkull’s plans. Speaking about the project, Disaster Games has conveyed excitement for deepening Morkull’s story and further refining the traditional animation techniques that have become the studio’s hallmark.
The team is committed to delivering a memorable, content-rich experience for fans on the Nintendo Switch eShop when the game arrives in 2026. For those eager to get a first look at Morkull Ascend to the Gods, a gameplay trailer is available showcasing the game’s unique blend of humor, action, and artistry.
Stay tuned to official Nintendo Direct announcements and the Nintendo eShop for future updates on release timing and further gameplay reveals.
As the Nintendo Switch library continues to grow, Morkull Ascend to the Gods is shaping up to be a standout addition for fans of hand-drawn 2D action games.
