Projectile Boosting

Boost your speed and height in ULTRAKILL using projectile boosting. Learn to harness the force of rockets and other projectiles to gain extreme mobility.

Projectile boosting is a high-skill, high-reward technique in ULTRAKILL that allows you to achieve incredible speeds and heights by using the force of your own projectiles against you. The most common method involves firing a projectile, such as a rocket from the Rocket Launcher, and then immediately dashing into it. The explosion of the rocket will propel you forward at immense velocity. This can be used for rapid traversal across large gaps, quickly closing the distance on distant enemies, or even escaping dangerous situations. The timing is critical; you need to dash just as the projectile detonates. Mastering this technique opens up new avenues for exploration and combat. You can use projectile boosts to reach elevated platforms that are otherwise inaccessible or to flank enemies from unexpected angles. Some players even use it to "rocket jump" over obstacles or to gain a height advantage in combat. Be aware that projectile boosting deals damage to you, so it's best used when you have sufficient health or are in a controlled environment. Practice in open areas to get the feel for the timing and trajectory. With enough practice, projectile boosting can become an indispensable tool in your ULTRAKILL arsenal, allowing for truly spectacular feats of movement and combat.

• Fire a projectile (e.g., Rocket Launcher) and dash into its explosion.
• Use projectile boosting for rapid traversal and closing distances.
• Achieve greater heights and flank enemies from unexpected angles.
• Practice precise timing for optimal speed and trajectory.
• Be mindful of self-damage; use when health is sufficient.
