Imagine a time when your biggest decision was whether to play Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat for the hundredth time, and suddenly—out of nowhere—a brand-new fighting game is dusting itself off and preparing to enter the arena over 25 years later. Meet Ultravore, the long-lost child of the Atari Lynx that’s making its return after taking an extended nap.
Originally birthed by Beyond Games in the early ’90s, this masterpiece faced the cruel fate of cancellation—like that friend who promises to join you for karaoke but mysteriously ghosts you at the last minute. Fast forward 25 years, and Songbird Productions has swooped in to rescue Ultravore from the depths of canceled game history.
They’re not just throwing this relic back on the shelves, either! The plan involves a full makeover—think of it like a glow-up reality show for fighters. We’re talking snazzy new graphics, an audio overhaul, and game mechanics fine-tuned to make sure that some moves pack a punch… quite literally. Rumors of cumulative damage effects and a roster expansion with fresh characters and environments are also on the table.
But here’s the kicker: to bring this gem to its final form, there’s talk of a crowdfunding campaign. Yes, just when you thought you wouldn’t have to open your wallet again until Black Friday, along comes Ultravore asking for a slice of your coffee money. It’s the perfect opportunity to revive your nostalgic gaming spirit and get involved in a slice of gaming history!
So, are you ready to punch, kick, and combo your way through a game that’s more than just pixels?
