Play Ultrabots Online

Ultrabots is a first-person robot simulation game released in 1993 for MS-DOS. Developed by NovaLogic and published by Electronic Arts, it is set in a science fiction future where humanity constructs giant robots from salvaged alien technology to defend against an impending invasion.

The player controls a robotic fighter from a cockpit view, engaging in tactical combat across various maps. Progression involves managing a small fleet of three distinct robot models: a standard Humanoid fighter, a slow Scorpion unit capable of deploying and dismantling the power grid, and a fast but lightly armed Scout. A core gameplay system requires robots to remain near an energy grid or rely on limited battery power, with only the Scorpion able to extend this grid. Players can instantly switch control between active robots using a strategic map to coordinate attacks and defend vulnerable units.

Objectives are achieved by navigating the battlefield, engaging enemy forces, and ultimately destroying the opposing base to halt its production. Damaged robots can be retrieved and repaired at the player's own base after a brief delay. The game structure focuses on resource management, positional control of the power grid, and the strategic deployment of different robot types to overcome enemy defenses.
