Ultima Online Newsletter

Ultima Online, the MMO that's been, well, online for nearly twenty years, is still kicking. The January newsletter assures us that the game's continued development is in full swing, with an update coming in February, and another one already in the works. The big takeaway from the newsletter is that in 2017, new window resolutions will be available to the players. Now, granted, 720p is not exactly cutting edge by today's standards, but for a venerable game like Ultima Online, this is a clear leap forward.
Here's an excerpt with a bit of belated holiday well-wishes:
Greetings,
From everyone here at Broadsword we want to wish everyone a happy and healthy 2017!
The UO Team is already busy getting a lot of great content ready for our first publish of the new year! Publish 96 is slated to go world wide in February. Keep an eye on UO.com for the latest updates on Pub 96 and when it launches on TC1 on or around January 19th, we hope you will all head over to TC1 and send us your feedback.
We are also working on the Pet Revamp that will be part of Publish 97. We have gotten your emails and feedback as to the direction of the revamp so please continue to send us your feedback on the pet revamp!
Our Developer Meet and Greets have resumed and our next one will be on Izumo on January 23rd at 9 am ET.
I would like to address the revert on Oceania. The fail-safes we have in place which are meant to notify us of an issue did not do so correctly. We are still investigating to determine the nature of the failure. We are sorry Oceania had a two day revert and want to thank everyone for being so patient while we fixed the issue.
[...]
See you in Britannia,
Bonnie "Mesanna" Armstrong
