“To D’ni” Release Update
The target date for the release of the first Uru: Ages Beyond Myst expansion pack has been moved out to mid-March. This reflects the need for a thorough and complete QA testing process, as well as preparation of the materials needed for the many European communities, both of which are taking longer than we’d anticipated. We apologize for the delay, but feel confident that the time taken now will enable us to launch the expansion pack simultaneously worldwide, with greater support. Thanks for your understanding.

The first Uru: Ages Beyond Myst expansion pack is now slated to be released the first week in March. The expansion pack will be free, and available at Gigex as a download (you must have first installed Uru: Ages Beyond Myst). Watch here for information about the final list of areas that will be included

From Bill;

The first expansion is not empty in any sense of the word.

From the point of view of the people who bought Uru but didn’t play beta or prologue (the overwhelming majority), here’s my rough count:

8 new Ages or significant areas
10 new puzzles
5 new Relto customizations (including 2 new technical features)
17 new pieces of clothing
43 new journals or monologues

For people who played beta or prologue:
4 new (small) Ages or significant areas you’ve never seen even if you hacked prime
10 new puzzles you haven’t solved though 2 involve the marker system in a way that will be somewhat familiar
2 new Relto customizations you’ve never seen (including two new technical features)
4 new pieces of clothing
34 new journals or monolgue

plus a continuation of the storyline
