That's right, someone (or sometwos, or threes... ;) ) is remaking Ultima IV, and is calling it Ultima IV - The Dawn of Virtue. I think Lord British (aka Richard Garriot) has given his royal assent to this project.

U4 was *THE* game that got me hooked on RPGs and despite its age it's still one of the better RPGs I have ever played.

For more information, look here.

If this is true, this is indeed wonderful news !!! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...ons/icon10.gif

Thank you, Hayashi ! [img]graemlins/kiss.gif[/img] Ultima IV is the game that got me into the world of computer games, and the Ultima series is THE game for me forever. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Too bad Lord B. and company lost the source code for Ultima 7 the best in the series :( We will probably never get to see that one remade :(

Sorrt of takes any enthusiasm I had for the Ultima series right out of me...Ultima and Wizardry...the two games I poured a large chunk of my free time into in 1980-82..I hope the update is successful.

It might interest people to know that Ultima 6:

Are also being remade, check the link I provided for each if you want to see some of it, the Ultima 1 people have their own engine and already have a "demo" up, and I think the Ultima 5 and 6 remakers are using the Dungeon Siege engine, at least one of them is.
