Windows 8.1 is not available in Ultimate. It's available in RT, Basic, Pro, and Enterprise. Windows 7 Ultimate included XP mode, which was a single-instance more desktop-integrated VM designed specifically to assist with application compatibility issues. It did not include normal virtualization rights.

In the Microsoft official material it stated that Ultimate was a non-SA version of Enterprise that was identical in every way.

According to this chart the VDI licensing was the same between the two...
