The romantics maintain that great stories don't have happy endings simply because they just don't end at all. We don't know if the loyal subscribers of Myst Online: Uru Live are romantics themselves, but with this update, we're pretty sure they are about to become one.

GameTap just announced two major developments for the game. First, they mentioned that a new area of the city as well as a never-before-seen Age will be released in the beta phase today, January 19. This is actually important as we all know how the gameplay of the Myst series go: nonstop exploration and puzzle solving all throughout the game's maze-like world.

A new city and a new Age mean more content and more adventure for players.

Furthermore, the publisher also added that a Mac compatible version of the game is currently in active development. While the MMO title is being maintained by Cyan Worlds, TransGaming is handling the move to Mac. It is no secret that the golden era of the Myst series happened on PC around a decade ago. But little do its new fans know that the first installation appeared on the Mac.

So, are you one of them romantics yet? No? Well, we will just have to see about that when Myst Online: Uru Live finally arrives sometime during the early part of this year.
