Along with the announcement of Ultima Online: Kingdom Reborn came news of the new game's first expansion pack, Ultima Online: Stygian Abyss. Planned for release this summer, the new expansion will be built exclusively using the new technology so players who want to experience any aspect of Stygian Abyss will have to upgrade to the new Kingdom Reborn client.
There are plenty of reasons that players will want to have access to the new content. Not only does Stygian Abyss introduce the largest dungeon in Ultima Online history but it also introduce gargoyles as a playable race. These quiet, noble people have the ability to shape stone and energy in some exciting ways that are sure to attract a wide range of players. Even players who aren't inclined to play as gargoyles will still want to visit the new gargoyle homeland to get a good look at its unique and exotic architecture. Perhaps the most attractive aspect of the new gargoyle characters is that they will have a unique mode of movement that sets them apart from the rest of the players. We're not allowed to say what it is but, come on...you know what we're talking about.
