Ultima V Lazarus Mod Gets Enhanced Demo Release

Posted by simoniker on from the britishing-it-up dept.

Ian "Tiberius" Frazier writes "Team Lazarus, a volunteer-run 'mod' organization, has released a second playable demo of the unofficial Ultima V: Lazarus mod to the public. Ultima V: Lazarus is a complete recreation of ORIGIN Systems' classic 1987 role-playing game Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny, utilizing the modding capabilities of Gas-Powered Games' Dungeon Siege. In addition to all the features found in its previous release, this Lazarus demo includes a host of new quests, locations, and an all-new frontend." We previously covered this mod back in February.

    Note sure how common this knowledge is, but...
    Lazarus will be available for users who own a copy of the original game, Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny* (PC Version only) and a copy of Gas-Powered Games' Dungeon Siege**.
    Game looks GREAT, so far, though!

  3. Peroxides Ultima 1 remake by Wuukie · · Score: 2, Informative

    Peroxide's Ultima 1 - A Legend is Reborn was called off because they wanted to go commercial and wanted to avoid obvious legal problems.

    Here is a good site that has most of the remakes that are currently being worked on. It hasn't been updated in a year, however the remakes that it links to are still active.
