Friends and realm-mates,
For more than twelve years Mythic Entertainment’s flagship game: Dark Age of Camelot™ has been remarkably successful. Since its launch in 2001, DAoC forever changed the MMO genre.
Inspiring thousands of gamers and game developers alike, it paved the way for a generation of MMOs to follow. Through the years, Camelot has also seen its share of rough times - but thanks to its many loyal fans and its wonderful and dedicated community, Dark Age of Camelot has proven to be a true survivor. In recent months, Mythic’s leadership began discussing the question of Camelot’s future. Councils were convened, options were discussed - and finally, a decision was made regarding the best possible future for Dark Age of Camelot.

UPDATE 11:30 AM EDT / 1730 CET: All Live Servers are back online!
Ywain and Gaheris are down for a scheduled patch. Pendragon will remain open to players during this downtime. We will provide updates here when the servers have come back online.
Live servers will be coming down for patch 1.114D tomorrow, January 14th, at 5:45AM EDT / 1145 CET. Servers are expected to come up by 2:00PM EDT / 2000 CET.
Patch 1.114D includes some of the smaller changes and bug fixes from the 1.115 notes that are currently on Pendragon as well as some time-sensitive behind-the-scenes work. Please note that this update does not include any of the changes related to the New Frontiers Revamp as we are busy responding to your feedback on those plans and won’t be launching those until we think you’ll be happy with them!
Having made their fortunes, the Traveling Merchants have passed word that they are soon to depart. Please be sure to stock up on goods, as it may be some time before these merchants return to the Realms.
The Merchants will pack up and leave on Monday, January 6th 2014.
We hope you enjoyed your shopping, and we'll see you in the Frontiers!
It's time to do some shopping for your friends and loved ones. The Traveling Merchants have returned, teeming with holiday cheer!
The Merchants have set up shop in their usual areas, so be sure to pay them a visit before they take their leave in a fortnight!
