Patch 11.0.5 Now Live
Major balance changes to all classes, new dungeon difficulty, and holiday events are now available. Check out the full patch notes for details.
An Ultima Online remake or modern reimagining has been a topic of discussion among fans for years, but as of now (mid-2024), there is no official full-fledged remake announced by Electronic Arts (EA) or Broadsword Online Games, the current caretakers of the game. However, heres what we know about potential remakes, spiritual successors, and fan projects: Official UO Remake Possibility - EA has not announced a full remake, but Ultima Online still receives updates (e.g., New Legacy in 2021). - Broadsword has focused on maintaining the live servers (Atlantic, Great Lakes, etc.) rather than a full reboot. - A modern Ultima Online 2 was canceled in the early 2000s, and EA has shown little interest in reviving the franchise beyond minor updates. Spiritual Successors & Similar Games - Shroud of the Avatar (2018) Richard Garriotts (UO creator) crowdfunded RPG, but it lacked UOs magic and player-driven world. - Legends of Aria (2019) A sandbox MMO heavily inspired by UO, but development stalled. - Mortal Online 2 (2022) A hardcore sandbox MMO with UO-like mechanics (full loot, housing, crafting). - Profane (Upcoming) A new sandbox MMO aiming to capture UOs freedom (still in development). Fan Projects & Private Servers - UO Outlands A popular private server with custom maps, mechanics, and a thriving playerbase. - UO Renaissance A classic-era UO private server. - UO Alive A free shard with quality-of-life improvements. - Angel Island A roleplay-focused UO server. Could a Remake Happen? - If EA ever revives the Ultima franchise (like Ultima X rumors), a UO remake might follow. - A successful indie project (like Profane) could inspire EA to revisit the IP. - Crowdfunding (like Shroud of the Avatar) remains a possibility but risky. What Fans Want - A true Ultima Online 2 with modern graphics but the same deep sandbox systems. - Player housing, full loot PvP, and a living economy. - No pay-to-win mechanics. Would you like recommendations for the best way to experience Ultima Online today (private servers, etc.)? Or are you more interested in news about potential remakes?

Venture into the depths of Azeroth itself in this groundbreaking expansion. Face new threats emerging from the planet's core, explore mysterious underground realms, and uncover secrets that will reshape your understanding of the Warcraft universe forever.
The War Within brings so much fresh content to WoW. The new zones are absolutely stunning and the storyline is engaging. Been playing for 15 years and this expansion reignited my passion for the game.
The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
