TRIVIA

Ultra Keibitai was released in January 1995 in Japan.

The title of the game translates from Japanese as 'Ultra Guards'.

This game is known outside Japan as Ultra X Weapons. You can change the Region via the dipswitches setting.

This game is based on 'Ultraman', a famous Japanese live-action superhero series that has had numerous sequels and spin-offs since its debut in the 1960s. Generally, the main character is a normal human who uses an alien device to transform into a giant red-and-silver (sometimes with blue) creature called an Ultraman to combat alien monsters with the help of a special military team. Some of the subsequent shows in the series include 'Ultraseven', 'Ultraman Leo', 'Ultraman Taroh', and 'Ultraman Tiga'.

UPDATES

A special version of the game was sent to the GAMEST magazine for review. This version has a different build date than the public release. Changes are unknown.
