Richard Garriott has not lost hope of regaining the rights to Ultima. Since 1992, Electronic Arts has owned the cult series, but has not made any obvious attempts to revive the universe.Garriott, the creator of the cult series, has repeatedly tried to offer his help to the company.Alas, the negotiations did not move forward.Now Lord British, according to Inside Games, has decided to change tactics, taking advantage of copyright legislation.According to the latter, creators can regain their rights after 35 years.So Garriott will try to do this in 2027.True, he will not be able to return the trademark, but mentioning Ultima in the name is allowed.The game designer already has thoughts about the return of the franchise.Perhaps we'll find out a little more in August at the Dragon Con festival.
