Ultros Update 1.03 Slides Out for Fixes This Feb. 26

Ultros Update 1.03

Developer Hadoque has released Ultros update 1.03 (PS5 update version 1.000.004), which brings various fixes to the metroidvania title. Read on for what’s new in the patch notes below.

Ultros Update 1.03 Patch Notes | Ultros Update 1.000.004 Patch Notes:

Here’s what’s new per the PS4 update history:

  •  Added some more charge shrooms in Infinity Lake.
  • Added an additional Planting Patch in Infinity Lake.
  • Fix so Augeas wall moss will only grow if touching the ground
  • Fix so branch simulation only happens in the players current area.
  • Fixed some audio effects, not stopping
  • Removed ceiling for restoring soil energy when digging up seeds.
  • Thruster tweaks.
  • Improved The feast of harvest achievement check.
  • Fixed other minor bugs.

There’s also a list of fixes released on PC (via Steam), which we’re guessing is part of today’s fix roll out.

  • Adjusted the physics for flying with the Thruster extractor, for a much smoother ride
  • Added a 4K resolution option. PLEASE NOTE that this only affects some of the graphics (in particular the UI) because the
  • artwork was created with an HD resolution in mind (1920 x 1080, or “Sharp” in the options menu). 4K will still cause your computer to use roughly twice the electricity compared to playing in HD, so we only recommend the setting if you are playing on a very large screen. Therefore, “Sharp” remains the default setting.
  • Removed a limitation on how far plants can grow immediately after replacing another plant.
  • Adjusted level design in Infinity Lake with new tools for players who may have gotten stuck, including a new planting patch and a few mushrooms for charging the Thruster
  • Fixed a crash that could happen when growing Augeas plants through an area transition and then returning later
  • Fixed a bug where music and audio could get stuck in a dampened state permanently.
  • Fixed a hang that could happen when breaking open a shaman pod while also carrying connection wisps
  • Improved registering for achievements “The pound of flesh which I demand” and “The feast of harvest”
  • Fixed other minor bugs

If you haven’t played the game, it has come out of nowhere to be a surprise hit! Our review can be checked out here where we state, “Platforming and combat are both solid, and while the latter isn’t perfect, there’s enough comfort to enjoy some good slashing and dodging fun, mixed with a hint of gardening and a gripping loop mechanic. The biggest fans of the genre should dive into this cryptic Sarcophagus without hesitating.”
