'Ultimechs' Gets Meta Quest 2, Steam VR And Pico Release Date, Will Be Free Download - Screens & Trailer

Ultimechs is a futuristic sports VR game that will put players in control of mechanized professional athletes as they compete for victory.

Your mech is ready. The crowd roars. Welcome to the arena...

A high-performance sport based on precise punches and impeccable reaction times, Ultimechs puts players in control of state-of-the-art machines designed for speed and power.

Working alongside a teammate, each competitor pilots their mech in pursuit of a massive superball as it ricochets its way around the arena. Using quick movements to stay on top of the ball and one step ahead of opponents, victory comes with a rocket-powered fist being aimed, shot and steered into the superball, slamming it into the goal. The precision, impeccable reaction times and lightning-fast calculations required to come out on top are sure to keep fans on the edge of their seats.

Going the distance to become a Superball Champion takes more than grease, gas and gears — it takes a cooperative spirit as players communicate, strategize and react with their teammate as they partner up for 2v2 competition.

Don’t play well with others? Players that are looking to hog all the glory of a win (or keep the sting of a loss to themselves) can also experience Ultimechs in 1v1 play.


“When we designed Ultimechs, we tried to keep in mind what would go into creating a new sport that people would love playing and watching years from now,” said Tommy Palm, founder and CEO of Resolution Games. “Ultimechs combines the excitement, drama and atmosphere of traditional sports and makes the action quick and simple to understand, with plenty of room for big power-plays and clever strategies. Players who want to take things to the next level can sign up for the UltiPass, a seasonal membership that unlocks a wealth of ways to upgrade the look of their mechs.”
