A producers letter posted on the UO website allows us to get a glimpse of a reborn Ultima Online, listing some big changes for the game:
"We are completely re-building the Ultima Online client with new graphics and a new easier-to-use interface."
"It is an in-place upgrade. That means you will be able to keep your characters, items, houses and everything else you've earned over the past nine years."
"We are committed to maintaining extremely low system specs. They will be higher than what UO launched with in 1997, but will still be far lower than almost any other MMORPG on the market."
The launching date is set in 2007, so obviously, when a full announcement does take place, there will be more surprises in store. The Ultima Online development team has been working for the past eight months to make real the vision of a thriving and vibrant Ultima Online, that already stood against all odds.
