There was one other interesting tidbit that I noticed in the first “Ask the Devs” post on the Ultima Forever forums. It might just be a throwaway remark, but…

Will I be able to play the original Ultima IV game on the iPhone, too?

Don’t worry, we haven’t forgotten about our roots, as you can see from our re-release of a back catalog of games (including the Ultima series on GOG.com). So who knows?

Mythic, you’ll recall, have been interested in bringing Ultima 4 to iOS for at least three years now. And the phrasing of the response is in no way a denial of the question posed. Could it be that Mythic have a mobile port of Ultima 4 up their sleeves?

Or is this just wishful thinking on my part?
