Du erwachst gestrandet auf The Sarcophagus, einer gigantischen kosmischen Struktur, die durch den Weltraum treibt und die uralte dämonische Entität ULTROS birgt. In der endlosen Schleife dieses Schwarzen Lochs durchstreifen Spieler eine ausgedehnte fremde Welt voller Leben und decken tiefe Lore zu psychischer Gesundheit, Leben, Tod und karmischen Zyklen durch Umgebungserzählung auf. Indie-Adventure-Fans meistern intimen, präzisionsbasierten Combat gegen kosmische Feinde, züchten Pflanzen, um versteckte Pfade freizulegen, und finden Augenblicke der besinnlichen Ruhe.
Eine einzigartige Loop-Mechanik setzt den Fortschritt an entscheidenden Story-Momenten zurück und enthüllt Geheimnisse, neue Gebiete sowie verzweigte Skilltree-Fähigkeiten. Probiert personalisierte Kampfstile über wiederholte Zyklen aus, um der Wahrheit auf die Spur zu kommen. Diese Kombination aus straffem Combat, reflektierender Kultivierung und nichtlinearer Erkundung auf dem PC fesselt genau die richtigen Spieler.
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. 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.
Are you the gruesome breaker of this cycle, or can you become a link from destruction to rebirth?
ULTROS is set in a multifaceted realm - a vast alien landscape teeming with life. Grounded in science fiction, ULTROS comes wrapped in an eccentric art style and a mystical soundtrack from the visionary El Huervo, renowned for his work on Hotline Miami. ULTROS explores meta-themes of mental health, life, death, and karmic cycles through deep lore and environmental storytelling.
Experience brutal, intimate, close-quarter combat with cosmic lifeforms, driven by a sense of urgency – where precision is paramount and every cut of your blade counts. Yet this intense combat is juxtaposed with cultivating the greenery and tending to plant life in The Sarcophagus, providing precious moments of contemplation and peace. In turn, this grants deeper access to obscured paths.
The rich world of ULTROS holds many secrets for those curious enough — and fearless enough — to seek them out. A unique loop-based mechanic will allow you to start over at key moments in the story, providing opportunities to unfold such secrets, unlock different areas of the world and new abilities on a branching skill tree. Experiment with and master your own specific fighting style as you explore the world of ULTROS. Each loop brings you closer to the truth...
