There are lots of unremarkable fighting games (Ultraman (Arcade, SNES, WSC), Ultraseven (SNES), Great (SNES), Powered (3DO), Tiga (PSX), Nexus (PS2), Hikari no Kyojin Densetsu (Saturn), Taiketsu! Ultra Hero (GBA).), crossovers (Everything's pretty awful except Super Tokusatsu Taisen 2001 (PSX), a SRW-style Tokusatsu homage) and so on. On that level, City Shrouded in Shadow (PS4) is an upcoming game from the makers of Disaster Report/Raw Danger (PS2) where you play as bystanders escaping from a city catastrophe by (at least) Imitation Ultraman, Godzilla and EVA-01.Įverything else IMO is pretty mediocre.

Monster Busters / Powered (NDS) is a blatant Monster Hunter clone down to the melee weapons, and Ultra X Weapons (Arcade) is a mediocre Ultra-themed shmup. If you're looking for something different, there's also a couple of games where you play from a human perspective: Ultra Kebitai (GBA) is a nice SRW-style game where you play as the first 3 Attack Teams against monsters and aliens while holding out for the Ultras. When you're very low in health/time, you can die by a hit or die by timeout. Other than Taiketsu! Ultra Hero (GBA), it's the only one that does something interesting with the color timer, which is a combinaton of a health bar and a timer: If you get hit, the 3 minute limit decreases. Other than some questionable design choices (VS mode is reserved for the monsters, Story mode randomly changes your opponents), it's recommendable. It's also got a small Ultraman Jack mode. It's very faithful to the 1966 show in all its monster-wrestling, outdated special-effect, limb-slicing glory. Ultraman (PS2) is the other unmissable game. UFE 1 (PSX) is weird since it behaves more like Tekken or Virtua Fighter than a Tokusatsu game, and UFE 2 (PS2) is a more limited version of UFE 3. UFE 0 (PSP) is a rehash of 3 and Rebirth's characters in a Showa/Mebius motif. UFE Rebirth (PS2) is good, but sacrifices characters and faithfulness to the shows for highly exaggerated special effects.

13 Ultramen, 17 monsters, 7 Ultramen palette-swaps and 3 unplayable bosses from all the franchise (1966-2003) with a story mode faithful to each Ultra's episodes and lots of hidden moves mean that this is, IMHO, the most complete game. Ultraman Fighting Evolution series, especially UFE3 (PS2). IMHO there's two games that should be essential to every gaming Ultraman fan: I'll try to keep this as brief as possible, since there's a LOT of Ultraman games.
