Description from the packaging.
CD Hard drive edition.
- Includes speech pack.
- Includes English, French and German speech and gameplay.
- Must be installed on your hard drive
On the world of Pagan, the guardian's forces are firmly entrenched and his control is absolute. The rule are different here from familiar Britannia, and you must discover how to defeat the ruling Elemental Titans on their own terms, while solving the mystery of their enigmatic pentagram. The time has come to bring the battle to the Guardian.
- A richer, livelier story in this luxuriously detailed world- we've condensed the essential elements of an Ultima into a fast-paced, thrilling adventure.
- Intense magic and fantasy- you invoke runes, rituals, reagents and enchantments against an array of creatures from a deceptively small doppelganger to dire trolls and demons.
- A closer blend of fantasy and reality than ever before- real-world physics and gameplay, including real-time combat where you make all the decisions.
- A wide variety of movements that compliment the greater role-playing realism. Leaping, climbing, running, throwing and combat are more convincing than ever.
- Alone in a strange world- without any companions, you must rely on your own strength, dexterity, intelligence and magical abilities to interact with natives who have their own lives and schedules.
- Incredibly smooth and lifelike animation- 400 frames of art per character (1200 frames for the Avatar) and 10 times the character art of previous Ultima!
- A new, more natural perspective.
- 4-Voice digital sound that lets you hear more than one sound effect at a time- hear two sword strokes plus your opponents' cries over the murmuring of a nearby brook (with compatible sound cards).
