Greetings,

Origin, Izumo & Baja will be brought down by 11:00am ET  on April 3, 2018 for an update to Publish 99.   Please see the publish notes for the latest updates.

We anticipate Publish 99 will be going World Wide on April 5, 2018.  This update will be done manually, and not during regularly scheduled maintenance.  Regularly scheduled maintenance for all shards will be cancelled beginning on April 5th and will resume on April 6th.  Shut messages will commence at 10:00am ET and shards will be brought down at 10:30am ET.  We anticipate the downtime will last approximately 3 hours.  Keep an eye on UO.com for updates on publish status.

Beginning at 10am on April 5, 2018 the Account Center will be brought down in preparation for Publish 99.  The account center will return at the time Publish 99 is released world wide.

Please also note that when Publish 99 goes World Wide the rewards available from the 20th Anniversary Elemental Titan arc will no longer be available to claim.

See you in Britannia,

UO Team

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.
