As the title states, Mark Rein took to Twitter and pretty much confirmed a new Unreal Tournament game

I for one, am thoroughly excited

Sorry if this is in the wrong place, feel free to move it admins

It's probably a Quake Live type re-release of one of the earlier games rather than a completely new game. I guess that would be okay though (especially if it brings a whole new life to the community).

This might be Epic's move to counter the death of Gamespy's servers

They already have a solution for that as far as the UT games are concerned. It'll be nice to see what they do, though.

I'm actually rather afraid of what they'll do. :P
But I am looking forward to seeing whatever plans they have in mind.

I just hope its a proper game not some lame free-to-play, largely crowdscource-built mashup. Or even worse, a browser-based downloadable game.

Finding it very hard to care for another UT title; UT99 is basically all I need, and I can play UT2k4 and (ugh) even UT3 once in a while if I need the flavor.

I'd much rather welcome a return to their single-player roots with less new-age cinematic bullshit and an escape from their established "machismo" art direction.

It already happened, see Fortnite.

Also, this might have to do with the recent release of Unreal Engine 4.

Yeah, What I would want them to do it go back to their roots for a fast pace game, ut99 and 2k4 did great in that part, oh and if they make an unreal tournament, I hope it's TOURNAMENT and not a crappy attempt to a story like UT3 did.


Alternative something that is more built out on the story part.

Apparently something is happening in around two and a half hours.

I hope it'll have proper kick ass SP instead of being just another MP game.

I still believe it's some way to kick UT modders into the UE4 world
