New Blood has revealed that Ultrakill’s next major addition, Hell’s eighth layer of Fraud, will be added to the early access FPS next week<\/a>. Fraud was initially set to release at the end of 2025, but suffered a minor last minute delay.<\/p>\n

We don’t know the exact day the update will drop, but New Blood advises fans to “Skip school. Call out sick from work,” because “It’s finally happening. And we’re not lying.”<\/p>\n

One of the coolest things about Ultrakill is that each layer of Hell pretty much has its own art style: Lust is a dreamy metropolis, Gluttony is a Jabu Jabu’s Belly<\/a>-style situation, Greed is a freaky golden desert filled with the monuments of humanity, it’s rad as hell.<\/p>\n

Fraud looks like a real heater, with the unifying theme seeming to be illusion, funhouse tricks, and the sort of physics-defying spaces you can only explore in a videogame.<\/p>\n

New Blood’s early access projects\u2060\u2014Gloomwood, Fallen Aces, and Ultrakill\u2060\u2014continue to simmer like a fine gumbo. The long waits will be well-worth it in the end, I think: All three have been surprising me with their scale and ambition.<\/p>\n
