Is EA’s Secret MMO Project An Ultima IV Reboot?


VG247 first got the scoop that EA was hiring a ‘web ninja’ for an unannounced MMO project that ‘will be huge’. The position was for EA headquarters located in Redwood Shores, California. Bluesnews today got a tip off that some in the Ultima community are beginning to suspect that EA are working on a new Ultima project. Two fan remake project of Ultima IV has been given cease and desist order. Multiple sites hosting those fan projects have been told to take them down. I’m not so sure if it is an Ultima IV remake. It could just be EA exercising their right to protect their IP. I do think they are working on an Ultima Project that is not Ultima Online. The mystery is that the position for the web ninja is at California and Bioware Mythic(the Mythic portion of that company) is based in Virginia. Could EA be working on some other MMO project? Could this be the new Command And Conquer game(but isn’t CNC the responsibility of EALA based in Los Angeles?). Oh the mystery…
