UO to me is the MMORPG that kick started this genre and we have so much to be thankful for it. I have much respect for the original Origin crew who got this ball rolling. UO would be nothing without the fans and passionate community it has. You guys and ladies are the best and longest supportive group of creative players I know of. You […]

Today’s Account Center maintenance came with an important change to the retrieval of your Master and Game account passwords. You no longer need your old passwords to change them.

   On Friday’s eve January 20th,  The Gold Diggers of Legends layed claim therein to the title and trophy of the cross shard treasure hunting championship; besting the Purple team and defending champions of Great Lakes.

Finishing the competition, […]

Hail Fellow UO Adventurers, I wanted to take a few minutes, clear up some things I’ve been reading, and post my thoughts on Ultima, UO and our recently announced new title, Ultima Forever. I’m sure for many it was exciting to see we have more things in store for Ultima beyond just rereleasing the classics through GoG, setting up a history site for all things Ultima, and continuing to support UO as it hits a major milestone next month –its 15th anniversary. I’m sure for others though, questions were raised. Why is BioWare not putting more development effort into UO […]

Concentration and Focus were removed from the options of the […]
