Indie-us Games, a studio specializing in Unreal Engine, is developing UNDEFEATED: Genesis, a prequel to the hero action game UNDEFEATED. The game was playable in a new demo at BitSummit PUNCH from May 22 to 24. Director Yuma Shinohara and producer Daigo Hyodo, who worked on the original as students, reunited at Indie-us Games to build a larger project. The core team has grown from three students to 13 developers, with about 60 names expected in the credits including outsourced work. The team uses UE5 for nearly everything, including cutscene dialogue, tool creation, and animation, relying on Maya and Blender only for modeling and texture tools. The demo features flight and destruction mechanics, with a stamina gauge that recharges by destroying red and blue stones. Combat uses only the right-hand controller buttons to accommodate less skilled players. The game is set on the planet Voltisia, where protagonist Albert Hartley gains superpowers and fights mutants. UNDEFEATED: Genesis is scheduled for release on PS5 and PC in early 2027, after a delay from 2026.
