Ultima Remake Question
   

I'm new to this particular forum, so my apologies if this question is common knowledge. I see a lot of msgs, files, info, etc. about re-makes of various different Ultima titles. My question is simple. Have *any* of these ever been finished? You know, completely done and playable from start to finish. If so, which ones and where can I find them. It seems that many have been started over the last few years, but most have been abandoned. Thanks.

As far as I know none have been completed.

Most of the ones that are still active are the Dungeon Seige conversions.

Check Aiera. It lists most known Ultima remakes and Ultima-themed game mods, and features latest-version downloads for most of them as well.

After a quick browse through there, I can see that there are:
  • 2 completed Akalabeth remakes (original graphics)
  • 1 completed remake of Ultima 1 (although not a true remake - it's a Java applet that runs it in a web browser) (original graphics)
  • 1 completed Ultima 2 remake (original graphics)
  • 1 completed Ultima 3 remake (or rather a port - to Macintosh) (original graphics)
  • 2 completed Ultima 4 remakes (1 with original graphics, 1 using NWN)

    Aaaaaaannnnnnnd......

  • 1 completed Ultima 7 remake (original graphics)


Cheers,
WtFD
