Ultracore
Hardcore finally awakes. Except for a few people, no one has ever seen or played this gem. But thanks to friends and our wonderful ‘A-Team’, the original data has finally been recovered. So after nearly 25 years of deep sleep, Hardcore will finally be published in 2019 under the name Ultracore! Ultracore is being developed using original Sega Mega Drive development hardware. It will then be ported to run on modern platforms. We intend to finish the game the way it was meant to be played! Everything is being handled with care, to guarantee gamers get the best possible version of this masterpiece.

Review coverage
Critic signal strength
Numeric critic scoring uses full scored reviews once available. Review-in-progress scores act as temporary early signal only until full review scores exist. Unscored reviews still count as coverage, but they are not included in the critic average.
