'''Ultima VI: The False Prophet''' was the first {{c|Ultima}} game to be developed primarily for [[MS-DOS]] (previous games were developed for [[Apple II]] and later ported to other systems). It takes full advantage of the hardware with 256-color VGA graphics and the first use of the series' unusual perspective. | |||
A [[Super Nintendo]] version was produced. The title was not numbered, because it was the third Ultima game released in Japan by Nintendo. There were [[Ultima VI: The False Prophet/Versions|many minor changes]], but on the whole it is still the same game, unlike other Ultima games ported on Nintendo consolles. | |||
In [[1991]] Fujitsu Japan released a version of Ultima VI for the Japan-only [[FM Towns]], what was at the time a considerably advanced PC. It was Origin's first CD-ROM game, and features fully digitized speech for all characters (in English!) many of which are voiced by their real-world namesakes (Richard Garriott voices Lord British, and so forth). | |||
The '''''New Ultima 6 Engine''''' (NUVIE) supports the FM-Towns voiceovers, but it still requires the MS-DOS version as the base. | |||
