EA Games Releases More Details For Upcoming Ultima iOS Game

Utima ForeverAlmost a year ago, EA Games announced that an iOS version of Ultima would be launched in late 2012. The announcement received much chatter amongst fans of the original. Many comments revolved around being disappointed in EA Games for changing the concept of the original so much. This came before anyone had any real information on the game’s design.
