Lightning-fast racer Switch Galaxy Ultra hits PS4 and PS Vita today

Everything you need to know about the stylish arcade title from Atomicom

Gary from Atomicom here with an update about Switch Galaxy Ultra. The game is one of the fastest reaction racers out there and launches on PlayStation Store today, 17th December 2014, just in time for Christmas. Check out our new trailer above.

We’re also very proud to announce that the Charity Pack, which supports Caudwell Children, features licensed music from Nero, Chase & Status, Modestep and Kove. All the proceeds from the sale of this pack go to help this amazing charity who support poor, sick and disabled children so please dig deep and help us support them by buying the pack.

Being only a small team, we’re very proud of what we have achieved with the game, from its early origins on Android, through to our critically acclaimed Switch Galaxy which launched last year on PlayStation Mobile, to the award-winning Switch Galaxy Ultra which we can honestly say is one of the biggest undertakings we have made so far as a team.

Both PlayStation 4 and PS Vita versions are running at super smooth 60FPS, with the PS4 version at 1080p, and both feature Cross-Play, Cross-Buy and Cloud-Save, online multiplayer, and tons of content. It’s an absolute bargain!

You play as Vince Vance, one of the last remaining humans and one of Dakur’s best pilots. Head of Dakur Technology, Amur Ness, has tasked you to go out into the galaxy and collect the valuable element tantalum for Dakur to use in researching their new jump drive.

The game features 55 action-packed levels that get increasingly more difficult as the game progresses. There are speed-ups, teleporters, jumps, enemy ships, bombs and much, much more. There are also challenges to take part in which are fiendishly hard and really get the adrenalin pumping.

As you progress through the game you will unlock a total of six new ships, all fully upgradeable with new skins and stats. You’ll also be able to unlock comic content designed by WipEout’s original concept artist Darren Douglas. The comic is really amazing and features mini episodes of Vince’s travels around the galaxy.

So what are you waiting for! It’s on the store right now and seriously kicks the stuffing out of your Christmas turkey. See you on the leaderboards.
