Ultra is a PC video gaming platform that was created by AAA gamers from companies such as Ubisoft and Wargaming. Today, Ultra Games has launched, a new next-generation PC games store.
The Ultra Games store will become available worldwide starting April 25th 2023 at 16:00 UTC. You can download Ultra Games here for PC. Launch titles include Lords of the Fallen and The Walking Dead Definitive Series. Ultra Games was beta tested by a dedicated community of over 1,000 gamers around the world.
Ultra Games is a modern and intuitive platform that solves the problems in PC gaming. It offers a fair revenue split for publishers and developers, and a better approach to discoverability and community management. Ultra Games features a modern storefront and launcher as well as curated libraries and powerful launchers. Tech partners include AMD, Ubisoft, Fulqrum and Skybound.
Ultra Games, a pioneering platform for PC gamers, will allow you to resell your digital games with permission from the developer. It also offers a referral system which gives players a portion of their friends’ purchases. Publishers and game developers can decide whether to activate the blockchain-enabled features in their titles and create parameters that are beneficial for both their business as well as their community. They aim to connect developers and gamers in vibrant communities by opening up channels of communication. The key initiatives include community management and feedback features as well as events like the Ultra Arena tournament.
Nicolas Gilot (Co-CEO of Ultra) commented:
“The PC gaming market is losing steam and is ripe to be disrupted. While the legacy platforms are incredibly successful, we think there is much to be done for developers, gamers, and pubs. Ultra Games was specifically designed to address key issues like high developer fees and a lack of flexible game ownership. We are still at the beginning of this journey, but we hope to create better, more transparent relationships between people by addressing these issues. After five years of development, listening to developers and players’ needs, I am excited to see this vision come to life.
Yves Blehaut (SVP, Strategic Partnerships at Microids) added:
“We are thrilled to be part of Ultra Games’ launch and offer our beloved titles to an enthusiastic gaming audience. Ultra Games offers a unique opportunity for gamers to experience and explore our games. We can’t wait until we see what the future holds in partnership.
