Airframe Ultra: Release Date, Price and Is It Coming to PS5, Xbox or Switch?

Airframe Ultra, the hoverbike battle racer from Rain World studio Videocult, came out on PC on 5 November. There's no console version yet, and no date for one, but its makers say consoles are part of the plan. Here's what's confirmed about the price, platforms and multiplayer.

When did Airframe Ultra come out?

Airframe Ultra launched on Steam on 5 November 2026, published by Akupara Games. It's a full release rather than Early Access.

How much does Airframe Ultra cost?

The Steam price is $12.99, £11.75 or €13.49 in Germany. It launched with 25% off, so it costs $9.74, £8.81 or €10.11 until 19 November, when Steam's introductory offer ends.

Akupara says it uses a third party to set fair prices in other countries instead of Steam's automatic currency conversion, so your local price may not match a straight conversion of the US one.

Is Airframe Ultra on PS5, Xbox or Nintendo Switch?

No, not yet. It's on PC only, and no console version or date has been announced.

Consoles are the stated intention, though. In the Beta 5 recap on Steam, Videocult's James wrote that "Airframe is intended as a multiplatform game" and that he personally doesn't consider it released "until we have the console versions out". That's a statement of intent, not a schedule, and no specific console has been named.

Which PC stores sell Airframe Ultra?

Steam is the main one, Windows only, with no Mac or Linux version listed. GOG has a store page, but as of 9 November it still says "coming soon" and only offers a wishlist button.

Does Airframe Ultra have split-screen?

Yes. The Steam page lists split-screen PvP and split-screen co-op alongside online PvP and online co-op. The store page highly recommends a gamepad.

Does Airframe Ultra have crossplay?

There's nothing to cross-play with for now, because Steam is the only version on sale. The Steam page doesn't list cross-platform multiplayer, and neither Videocult nor Akupara has said whether future console versions will play with PC.

Can you play Airframe Ultra alone?

Don't count on it as a solo game. Steam's feature list is all multiplayer, with no single-player entry, and Akupara calls it "a multiplayer game first and foremost". GOG's listing does tick single-player, but that version isn't out, and we haven't found a description of a solo mode from either company.

Will Airframe Ultra have DLC or microtransactions?

It will have paid expansions, but with a twist. In a message on Steam, Videocult said it plans new content every few months as an expansion costing "a few bucks". When the next expansion arrives, the previous one joins the base game for free, so paying only gets you each round earlier. The studio says it will never sell individual digital items.

Is it any good?

Early Steam reviews are split. The page shows a Mixed rating, with 64% of 374 user reviews positive on 9 November. Videocult has said this first version is deliberately limited and that some things from the betas are missing for now, to come back in bigger form in later updates.

Can my PC run it?

Most likely. Steam asks for Windows 10 (64-bit), an Intel Core i3-3220 or AMD FX-4300, 6GB of RAM, a GeForce GTX 650 or Radeon HD 7750 with 1GB of video memory, and just 1GB of storage. The recommended setup is an Intel Core i5-6400 or Ryzen 3 1200, 8GB of RAM and a GTX 1050 Ti or RX 560. You'll need a broadband connection. The Steam page carries no AI-generated content disclosure.

Which languages does it support?

English has full audio. The game is also in French, Italian, German, Spanish (Spain) and Brazilian Portuguese.
