Cear Dragon emailed me to announce that an updated client for Ultima 6 Online had been published…just in time for (and, in fact, to support) the latest in-game event:

Earthquakes that rival the cataclysm have struck Britannia world wide for three days! After the ocean waters settled down citizens are reporting wealth and death on all shores! While Lord British’s Navy has yes to find the source of these washings on the beaches, Rumor has it that trade vessels traveling from Britain and Trinsic in route to Hythloth to speak with the gargoyles are vanishing, and all attempts to find them are meeting without success.

===============

Travel the seas with risk Britannian’s

This is the largest terror you have faced yet.

================

You will need the latest version of this game to participate.
Hurry in game and find your treasure!

The pay off of this event is so large that it simple cannot go on forever.

Well, doesn’t that just sound like a smashing good time? You can download the up-to-date Ultima 6 Online client at either the game’s website or the project entry here.
