Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny is the fifth entry in the role-playing video game series Ultima. The game featured much more polished writing and considerably greater detail than previous games. It was the first Ultima to implement a time-of-day system in which the sun rises and sets, and non-player characters follow daily routine schedules. This game has been lauded as realistically portraying a culture living under a dictatorial regime; its tone is much darker than that of Ultima IV.
