Ultima 5: Lazarus

About the remake

Ultima V: Lazarus, using the Dungeon Siege engine and led by Ian "Tiberius Moongazer" Frazier, took 5 and a half years to complete, before it was released on 22nd December 2005. Before that, two tech demos were released in quick succession in 2004, which gave the public a taste of what was to come. After long years of hard work, Lazarus has been completed!
