Unexpected Early Release of Ultrawings 2 on PS5 and VR2 Surprises Developers

Bit Planet Games scrambles to understand the unforeseen launch, assures minor issues will be fixed in upcoming patch.

Ultrawings 2, a mission-based flight sim game, unexpectedly launched on PlayStation 5 and PSVR2, surprising both fans and the game's developers, Bit Planet Games.
Bit Planet Games had planned to release the game on PlayStation's VR headset in late 2023, but the game suddenly appeared on PSN on January 25, 2024.
The developers have confirmed that the game's release was unforeseen and that they are unsure whether the early release was due to a mistake on Sony's part or their own.
Despite the unexpected launch, the game is reported to have only minor issues, which have already been fixed in a patch that was supposed to launch with the game but will now be released a few days later.
While the sudden release has disrupted the developer's marketing plans, the game's early availability has generated significant discussion among fans and media outlets.
