Unleashing the Unhinged: Ultros Brings Psychedelic Metroidvania to Gamers

Upcoming Release of the Psychedelic Action-Platformer Ultros

The gaming community is eagerly anticipating the launch of the psychedelic action-platformer Ultros, set to make its debut on February 13, 2024. This title promises to deliver a unique visual experience paired with engaging combat mechanics that will have players dashing, slashing, and dodging their way through a vibrant and bizarre world.

Creative Forces Behind Ultros

The development of Ultros is the brainchild of the indie team Hadoque, which includes the talented El Huervo, also known as Niklas 00c5kerblad. El Huervo’s distinctive artistic flair is well-known in the gaming community, particularly for his psychedelic melting-people portraits that became a defining feature of the cult classic Hotline Miami. His contributions to the game’s aesthetic and soundtrack have garnered him a dedicated following among indie game aficionados alike.

Gameplay and World

Ultros invites players to immerse themselves in a cosmic uterus, a setting that is as enigmatic as it is grand. The game’s world, known as The Sarcophagus, is a cyclical realm where a world-ending demon resides. This backdrop sets the stage for a gameplay experience that is rich in duality, blending intense combat with serene moments of creation and cultivation.

The recently released Himsa Ahimsa Excalation Trailer showcases this duality, highlighting the game’s varied gameplay. Players will engage in challenging, fast-paced combat against monstrous alien creatures and enigmatic foes. In stark contrast, they will also nurture peaceful plant life, cultivating gardens in space and fostering harmonious co-existence within the cosmic confines of The Sarcophagus.

New to the gameplay mechanics are the Extractor features, which allow players to birth new life into the alien world around them. These mechanics not only add depth to the gameplay but also unlock more options for players to tailor their play style.

Release Date and Availability of Ultros

The much-anticipated Ultros is set to release on February 13, 2024. Gamers around the world will soon be able to dive into the cosmic adventure and experience the unique blend of action and tranquility that Ultros offers.
