Lost Sosaria
Worlds of Ultima: Lost Sosaria is best described by Aiera:
Pursuing Fellowship agents deep into the bowels of Britannia and the ruins of the Great Stygian Abyss, the companion Sentri leads his party of former friends and companions of the Avatar into an unknown part of the world: Lost Sosaria, two of the continents of Old Sosaria left missing after the death of the Wizard Mondain.
Lost Sosaria is not set in Britannia, but is about the discovery of new places, as is the tradition of the Worlds of Ultima games.

Chronicles of Batlin

Era - The Arken-Throne
When Peroxide cancelled their Ultima 1 remake, they turned their attention to a new project called Era that would be free of all relationships with Ultima, and thus, with any possible legal issues with EA. However, Peroxide gave up with Era as well on 5th August 2004, to start with something else. The reasons for this ending to the project have been posted to the Peroxide forum.
