Intra Games (CEO Bae Sang-chan) announced that the PC version of ‘Ultra Age’ will be released on Steam on April 28 through the ‘Ultra Age Roadmap Meeting’ held on its YouTube channel on the 21st.
The meeting was held in pre-recorded format to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The developer, Next Stage CEO Kang Hyun-woo, personally explained several improvements to the PC version of ‘Ultra Age’ at the meeting that day.
‘Ultra Age’ has refined various aspects from graphics, gameplay, and other content.
The overall background and graphic quality of all chapters have been improved, and the appearance of the main character ‘Age’ has been improved. In addition, frame improvements and graphics options have been added, and difficulty and game level design have been adjusted. Some in-game play elements have also been modified for a pleasant gameplay.
In the case of sound, the previously applied English and Japanese voices were fully re-recorded to enhance the immersion. Various bug fixes and in-game options for PC users have been added.
CEO Kang Hyun-woo said, “In addition to announcing the overall improvement, we are also preparing free DLC to provide additional entertainment.”
The free DLC will include end content for users who have cleared all of the game’s story mode, roguelite-style gameplay, introduction of a growing method through multiple choices, and collection elements. The DLC will be provided free of charge in the second half of this year.
Along with the release date announcement, Intragames announced that improvements and additions to ‘Ultra Age’ will be applied to the PC version as well as PlayStation®4 and Nintendo Switch
CEO Kang Hyun-woo said, “I would like to sincerely thank you once again for showing a lot of interest in ‘Ultra Age’ for about 7 months after its release. I hope it will be an opportunity to be recognized for its potential beyond indie games.”
‘Ultra Age’, which is about to be released this time, is a high-speed action game developed by the indie game company Next Stage and the game graphic company Visual Dart. It is rare for an indie developer to develop a game through Unreal Engine 4, and for its outstanding action and high level of gameplay, it has attracted the attention of many stakeholders and gamers at the time of release.
