Psychedelic Side-Scroller Ultros Brings Colour to PS5, PS4 in February

First announced for PS5, PS4 during Sony’s PlayStation Showcase earlier this year, it’s been confirmed the psychedelic side-scroller Ultros will release on 13th February 2024. It’s available to pre-order now on the PS Store for £17.99 / $22.49 with a 10 per cent PS Plus discount. Catch the latest trailer above to see it in action.

“You wake up stranded, after seemingly crashing your ship on The Sarcophagus — a giant, space-drifting, cosmic uterus holding an ancient demonic being known as ULTROS,” the PS Store listing explains. “Trapped in the eternal loop of a black hole, you will have to explore The Sarcophagus and meet its inhabitants to understand the part you play.” It then goes on to share how the game uses a “unique loop-based mechanic” that allows you to restart the experience at key points in the story in order to find secrets, unlock more areas, and new abilities.

If you take a fancy to the music in the trailer above, you can opt for the Deluxe Edition for an extra £10 / $10, which bundles in the soundtrack and a digital artbook with the base game. Are you adding Ultros to your wishlist? Let us know in the comments below.
