Save Big On The Trippy New Metroidvania Ultros On Launch Day
We’re living in a golden age of metroidvania games, and if you think you’ve seen it all, then Ultros is going to be a big surprise when you lay eyes on it. Ultros is a psychedelic romp through living levels that launched today (February 13), and you can score a big discount over at Green Man Gaming. You can pick the game up for $18 instead of its regular $25 asking price (it’s $22.49 on Steam right now). Meanwhile, the deluxe edition with the included digital art book and soundtrack has also been discounted from $35 to $25.19. Both editions of the game will be delivered instantly as Steam keys. If you recently finished Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, Ultros is a logical next game to try.

There is a slight catch here, as you’ll need to be a bronze-tier member of Green Man Gaming’s XP rewards program. Joining the program is free, but you’ll need to gather 10 points to reach the bronze level of the membership, which means spending at least $1 on a game. The quickest way to buy yourself into that membership sphere is to check the available games, categorize from low to high, and grab something that catches your eye.
But once you do that, you’re free to get a great game at an even better price. Ultros is more than just a trippy metroidvania, as it combines roguelite themes with a few other genres to create a game that feels constantly rewarding to play.
