Sweden-based developer Hadoque unveiled their debut psychedelic delight, ULTROS, during the PlayStation Showcase yesterday. A mystical, action-packed, loop-based adventure brought to life by a mesmerizing soundtrack and otherworldly artwork by world-renowned artist El Huervo (Hotline Miami series), ULTROS, launches as a PlayStation console exclusive and on PC (via Steam) in 2024.
ULTROS throws players into a lush Metroidvania-style alien landscape teeming with life. Explore the cosmic mysteries that lurk within the world of The Sarcophagus to discover brutal and bloodthirsty life forms alongside a vast verdure of exotic flora. Slash monstrous creatures in daring sword-based combat and cultivate a teeming green web. In this world, death does not mean the end, as the strange powers of The Sarcophagus and the demonic being that resides within will send players into a time loop upon their disappearance.
As you descend into the depths of the ecosystem, loop by loop, and learn to understand the world, you soon realize that only the curious and intrepid will have what it takes to master the skills necessary to break the cycle of life and death.
Set against the backdrop of eccentric art and an enchanting soundscape, the rich world of ULTROS is full of secrets, inviting players to discover everything within when it launches in 2024 for PC and PlayStation.
