Magratheus bless you, Striver.
You've defeated Morio, the Man-Eater, in the Steam Demo for Morbid: The Lords of Ire...now many other abysmal acolytes await you in the land of Ire. We're excited to introduce you to Baki—one of the most grotesque bosses you get to face in Morbid: The Lords of Ire.
Watch the brand-new Boss Fight Feature below from Morbid: The Lords of Ire, and prepare for battle against Emperor Baki, the Decadent Despot...
Emperor Baki became the decadent despot of the Rotten City, Dunghaven. With the riches of his people, Baki built himself a pompous palace where he would live a lavish life of luxury and sin, while his subordinates toiled in abject poverty.
The weaknesses of the democratic system had always engendered despotic desires in the twisted mind of Senator Baki. With the five factions on the verge of war, he presented a motion to elect him as the wartime leader for Dunghaven. But being the rotten egg of a man that he was, Baki's proposal was cast aside by his colleagues.
While the senate laughed him out, the Gahars approached Baki with a solemn proposition. They promised to make him the sole ruler of Dunghaven if he would lend his flesh to the devious deities. Baki agreed, and a deal was struck.
Once the pact was sealed, the river coursing through Dunghaven suddenly seized to flow. This turned the all-important waterway into a cesspool of stillwater through which no ship could sail. The ensuing panic allowed Baki to again express his willingness to take the lead and this time the senate acquiesced.
Baki rose to power as the tyrant of Dunghaven and soon after abolished the senate. With the Gahars on his side, the self-proclaimed emperor plunged the port into a maelstrom of misery and death. The formerly democratic township fell, and its people became slaves to their new decadent despot.

Final Concept Image
Baki is a very fast-paced and melee-heavy boss—he has a broad repertoire of attacks that allows him to engage from anywhere in the Arena. Against Baki, positioning is vital. Well-timed evasive dodge rolls as well as evasive dashes whilst using a long-range weapon may just be your best bet against him.
We've come a long way since Morbid: The Seven Acolytes and our first demo release, but you can finally explore all of the grim world of Ire and take on all five of the fearsome bosses in Morbid: The Lords of Ire, out tomorrow!
