Ultracore: A Lost Classic Returns with Full Power!

Ultracore is an authentic Run ‘n Gun 16-bit game, a true love letter to classic 2D action games with intricate level design, tons of secrets to discover, and numerous mid- and end-bosses. Originally developed in the 90s by the legendary game studio Digital Illusions, it was sadly cancelled last minute under the working title Hardcore. Now, after 25 long years, the original game data has been recovered from an old hard drive and passionately ported to run on modern hardware. Ultracore is finally available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation Vita.

A Game with History

Ultracore almost disappeared into obscurity. It was planned for the Sega Mega Drive and Amiga, and despite being nearly finished, it was never released. Thanks to an incredible preservation effort, this hidden gem has been revived, offering an authentic retro experience that stays true to its origins.
