Return To Britannia
The granddaddy of MMORPG's is celebrating its 12th anniversary with the Return to Britannia Campaign. That's right, Ultima Online is still in business, and would like to welcome back all former players with unlimited free play through October 16. Closed accounts in good standing have been re-activated, and former players can log back into the game with their original user names and passwords.
"We're hoping that, as part of the Return to Britannia Campaign, former players will once again rediscover the joys of Ultima Online," said Jeff Hickman, Executive Producer for Mythic Entertainment. "UO was the first love of many MMORPG players, and it still holds a special place in their hearts after 12 glorious years. I think returning players will be pleasantly surprised to find a thriving and vibrant community from around the world ready to welcome back their former compatriots and include them in their ongoing adventures."
New content is available to returning players, including Mondain's Legacy, the seventh Ultima Online expansion that introduced the playable Elven race and some dangerous new dungeons, which was made available at no charge in August of this year. Players returning to Ultima Online through this campaign can download and install the Ultima Online client for free at http://www.uoherald.com/trial/. If you no longer have access to your old username and password, you can contact EA customer support.
So how about it? Once more unto the breach?

I love UO but "thriving" and "EA" is a contradiction.
