Did you ever have an <em><a href="http://www.uoherald.com/">Ultima Online</a> </em>account? If you did, then <a href="http://investors.ea.com/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=411811">Mythic's new "Return to Britannia" campaign</a> is aimed at you. All closed accounts in good standing have been reactivated, and will remain open until the 16th of October. Content up to and including the seventh expansion (<em>Mondain's Legacy</em>) will be playable by old accounts, which puts this offer <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/07/31/ultima-onlines-seventh-expansion-is-now-free/">in line with the 14-day free trials</a>, with the added bonus of being able to play your previous characters.<br /><br />The "Return to Britannia" campaign is part of the celebrations for <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/ultima-online">Ultima Online</a>'s</em> twelve-year anniversary, but keep in mind that the game's first expansion in years also <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/09/08/ultima-online-expansion-launches-producer-discusses-challenges/">launched earlier this month</a>. Mythic Entertainment's Jeff Hickman made a statement about the offer: <em>"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."</em><br /><br />If you're keen to get back into <em>UO</em>, the client can be <a href="http://www.uoherald.com/trial/">downloaded here</a>, and Mythic is encouraging folks who can't remember their old details to try <a href="http://support.ea.com">EA customer support</a>.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/09/28/mythic-invites-former-ultima-online-players-to-return-to-britan/">Mythic invites former Ultima Online players to "Return to Britannia"</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Mon, 28 Sep 2009 13:00:00 EST.
