Resolution Games have set a release date for their new VR sports title Ultimechs today. Players will be able to jump into the pilot seat on September 15 using Steam VR, Meta Quest 2, and Pico devices.
The game will be free to download and supported by the Ultimechs UltiPass. This seasonal battle pass system will provide new paint jobs and cosmetic enhancements for players to personalize their mechs. Further details about the pass will be released ahead of the game’s launch. For further gameplay details see the video below.
“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.”
Players interested in trying out the game early can register for the Ultimechs Pre-Season Preview Weekend on Steam to be notified about updates. The event will run from August 25 – 28, and players can pair up with others in the community to compete in 1v1 or 2v2.
For those attending GamesCon in Cologne, Germany, from August 24-28, the game will make its hand-on debut at booth #C051 in Hall 09.1.
