<A href="http://xu4.sourceforge.net/">XU4</a>, an engine remake for <i>Ultima 4</i>, has updated their <A href="http://xu4.sourceforge.net/faq.html">FAQ</a> to include a hint at what they're aiming for in the future.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<blockquote><b>Q: What (if anything) do you guys plan to work on after the 1.0 release?
<br>
A:</b> Well, we're still figuring out the exact details, but mainly we're trying to make xu4 a game engine that will ultimately run Ultima 1 through 4 and possibly Ultima 5 as well. In this process, we're extrapolating different commonalities between the games into our engine.
<br>
<br>
This includes:
<br>
<ul><li>sound</li><li>tilesets</li><li>animations</li><li>combat styles</li><li>conversations</li><li>vendors</li></ul>
<br>
<br>
That's the direction we're headed at least.</blockquote>
<br>
<br>
Five Ultimas, one engine. That'd be swanky, wouldn't it?
