In the past few weeks your entries have tickled our funny bones, tugged at our heart strings and stirred up many enjoyable memories. In some shards the competition was fierce and forced many of us to diligently scour through many entries. Other shards the choice was much simpler. In either case, we would like to thank all of players for their amazing memories and announce our winning picks for your memorable UO moments. The first moments we would like to publish are the ones from the Balhae Shard. We received only four entries, so all of the entries are winners! […]

Hello everyone,   First off I would like to thank everyone for their kind words to me regarding my promotion. I am writing this because some of you wanted an official Producer Letter so here goes.  First I would like to address the Exodus Event reward.  The +5 stat scroll will be put in the game as a permanent drop. This is something that was discussed as a team from the very beginning, so if you did not get one at Exodus or were not able to be at the event, you will  be able to get it later. The second […]

All the latest news and the archives have been restored on the website after yesterday’s issues. Due to limitations in our publishing tool, some news articles bear two time stamps – one of today when they were restored and one of the original publishing date. We continue to work on the other pages like the UO Guide or the Account Center information to bring them back up to date as fast as possible. Please let us know if you miss content. Thank you for your support.

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 […]
