The final chapter in the legend of the Avatar.

Ultima 9: Ascension, the memorable final installment of world's first cRPG saga, that entertained generations of gamers, is now available on GOG.com for only $5.99.

[url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/ultima_9_ascension/][/url]You fought wizards, monsters, and demonic computers in the Age of Darkness. You sought truth, love, and courage to become the champion of the eight virtues in the Age of Enlightenment. The Age of Armageddon sent you on a journey through the Black Gate, onto the Serpent Isle, and into exile to the dark, twisted otherworld of Pagan. Now you are summoned to defend Britannia for the final time and free it from the corrupting influence of the fiendish Guardian. You will answer this call, as you did so many times before, for you are the Avatar, and this is the time of your ascension.

Ultima 9: Ascension concludes the saga envisioned by Richard Garriot in 1981 and continued over the next 18 years. For the first time you can explore the land of Britannia in full 3D and experience one of the most exceptional and colorful gameworlds ever created. Hundreds of pages of script went into producing the final Ultima's story, a story that brings a closure to the journey of the Avatar. A journey every RPG gamer should experience in full for him- or herself.

Answer the call of Brittania for the final time and let yourself be consumed by the world of
Ultima 9: Ascension for only $5.99 on GOG.com.

grviper: gog, the tarot cards download links to the reference card.
Sorry about that. All fixed now :D

Fred_DM: BTW, i do hope this release supports 3D acceleration. does it? i reckon it comes with a Glide emulator.

kodeen: Would a blue-text please answer this?
It is bundled with nGlide.

keeveek: And Privateer 2. ;-)

dirtyharry50: Oh, yes! Absolutely!
Oh! That reminds me: apart for adding some new bonus content for Ultima games we also uploaded some goodies to our Wing Commander 1&2 and Wing Commander Privateer gamecards. Make sure to check them out :-)

Baron_BJ: What changes has GOG made to the game? How Drastic? Does this version include the unofficial 1.19f patch or have the GOG staff amped this puppy up even more?
1.19f patch is included. Any fan-made patches or mods should work as long as they won't modify u9.exe file.

Small additional change is that the nGlide version will run at 30 FPS, which fixes several script-related issues, such as items not falling down after shrine cleansing.

Baron_BJ: A few things; I've noticed that the version released is 1.0.0.7
Please note that the version number listed in the previous post is our own installer version and not of the game itself.

grviper: With all the Ultima updates, is U4's spellbook still missing page 8?
I took care of that niggling problem :D

Roman5: As bad as this game is, it's nice to have the complete series here on GOG

And hey, you gotta give the GOG team some credit, they packed so many extras into this release that those alone are worth the 3 bucks
FTFY. :P

bazilisek: Nope, it's there now. Both for the 456 bundle and the free 4.

EDIT: Damn, blueninja'd.
Truth be told, Judas sometimes scares us all with his awesome stealth skillset. ;-)

ZapMcRaygunn: GOG FTW again! It's beyond awesome having all the Ultimas including the Worlds games on one computer and able to be clicked and played without having to re-program the computer and make bootdisks just to play the games. As for the extras, they just plain rock.
I am really enjoying reading the design notes on UVII which is my all-time favorite game, and the SI Cluebook is way beyond cool. Also the WC stuff, and even the soundtrack to Blood showed up today!
Thanks to all involved for creating the Ultimate Ultima experience. Yes, Britannia was in peril, but now it lives on in the Universe of GOG!
The soundtrack for Blood was always there. I just polished it and the file names up a bit. I hope the quality is to your liking :D
