Greetings,
We are pleased to announce Publish 99 will be deployed to Origin, Izumo, and Baja occurring after 1:00pm ET March 29, 2018. We will be manually taking down these shards at approximately 12:30pm ET. This release only includes the following features,
- Towncrier update & related quests
- Global Chat (Please note this feature will require a database update and will not be immediately available when shards are back online)
- Miscellaneous bug fixes
Endless Journey access will not be available until Publish 99 is deployed world wide.
While Origin, Izumo and Baja are being updated Vendor Search, Character Transfer, and Housing will be unavailable on all shards for approximately 2 hours. Following the release of Publish 99 to Origin, Izumo, and Baja characters will not be able to transfer to or from shards not updated to Publish 99.
The latest client patch will be mandatory, so please be sure to patch up before logging in to any shard.
You can read the full patch notes here, and we look forward to your feedback and discussion on the forums.
See you in Britannia,
UO Team
