Unreal Tournament 4 Announced

Unreal Tournament

Free, Community Developed

Epic Games announced today on Twitch.tv that Unreal Tournament lives!

The new Unreal Tournament 4, based on Unreal Engine 4, will be free to everyone. Free download, free play, no microtransactions; free. The game will be developed in concert between Epic and community developers. Assets, gameplay, mods, and more will be created by the community, and available in the game for everyone to enjoy. Additionally, the source for UT4 is part of the Unreal Engine 4 Subscription, which means developers can utilize it.

UT4 will support Windows, Mac OSX and Linux. UT4 supports modding, so expect to see a large fan community pop up quickly.

Confirmed on #unrealdev @Twitch stream:
Unreal Tournament development starts today. PC, Mac, Linux.
Free. Not F2P, just free.
