Ultima Online: Renaissance is the second expansion for UO. Released on April 3, 2000, it added content, fixed bugs, and made several gameplay changes. It introduced the Trammel facet. Although Factions didn't make in for release, it was added a couple months later.
Prior to its release, the expansion was said to double the amount of room in the game, but that it would not use a duplicate of the map, rather it would be adding new content. It was later found in the previews that Renaissance simply added a mirror world under different rules. Felucca and Trammel were created, the first one with "player vs. player killing" allowed, and the latter with only consensual combat.
