As the world shifted towards the new generation of gaming consoles, Hardcore's release was canceled and the game was lost forever... until now! After 25 long years, ININ, DICE and Strictly Limited came together to bring this gem back for retro gaming fans under the new name, Ultracore!

    Ultracore is an authentic Run 'n Gun game - a true love letter to classic 2D action games with elaborate stage design, tons of secrets to discover, and many mid- and end-bosses.
