Echo developer Ultra Ultra closes down

<div style="margin: 5px 5% 10px 5%;"><img src="http://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/echo-developer-ultra-ultra-closes-down.jpg" width="400" height="400" title="" alt="" /></div><div><p><strong>Newsbrief: </strong>The Copenhagen-based developer Ultra Ultra has closed its doors less than two years after releasing its atmospheric sci-fi game <em>Echo</em>.</p>
<p>The team shared the news in a <a href="https://twitter.com/theUltraUltra/status/1125687744443899905">tweet</a>, noting that, while the studio has shut down, the movie&nbsp;based on <em>Echo</em> is still in the works and the game itself will remain up for sale.</p>
<p>“We’re terribly sad to report that Ultra Ultra has ceased to exist,” reads a tweet from the team. “We are grateful to have had the chance to crystallize something truly from the heart.”</p>
<p>Ultra Ultra released <em>Echo</em> for PC and PlayStation 4 in late 2017 and just this January announced that the game would be adapted into a film at the hands of John Wick creator and writer&nbsp;Derek Kolstad. Between development and studio setup, the team spent around three years working on the game, something discussed by Ultra Ultra’s Martin Emborg in an <a href="https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/314766/Road_to_the_IGF_ULTRA_ULTRAs_Echo.php">interview</a> following their IGF nomination last year.</p>
