Ultima Forever closed beta

I just read that there is a closed beta (sign up currently open) for Ultima Forever, a new apparently Free 2 Play Ultima VI remake.

Having already spent years playing Ultima Online I do not wish to even try it, also because it looks won't be a "new Ultima Online" but a freemium remake of a singleplayer one, with coop included.

Anyway, yours to test and assest if worth playing or not.

Some bits of additional info at Touch Arcade

Update: Details and even a few screenshots at a RPS interview.
