Well, it took Cliffy a while. Cliff Bleszinksi – the man responsible for Unreal Tournament that attacked PC gamers for pirating his games, retiring from video games and then returning to this industry with a possible PC exclusive arena shooter – has announced that he’s officially back in business.
What’s more interesting, however, is that Cliff’s new game will most probably be unveiled in the next 7 days.
According to earlier reports, Cliff Bleszinski is currently working on a new PC-centric Arena FPS that will be powered by Epic’s Unreal Engine 4, and will be called Silverstreak.
In the past few months, Bleszinski revealed a number of screenshots from Silvestreak, giving gamers a glimpse at what this new game may look like.
It will also be interesting to see whether the game will stay focused on the PC or not. Who will publish it and will it turn into a multi-platform title?
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

He better be damn sure it’s PC only like he promised.
I can’t grammar-rip you twice in one day John, it’s not fair mate.
I know how this will be. Early prototype (much hype, so unreal, very tournament) => Kickstarter with broken promises and delays => Steam Early Access without updates for several months => alpha 0.0001 version for 120$ and founder packs for 1000$ => shitty (F2P) game in the end.
See Godus or StarForge.
lol a bit pessimistic? although unfortunately that is what it seems as of late with all these early access.
Yeah, look at Divinity Original Sin.
Oh wait I’m playing the finish version right now and it’s awesome.
cliif is a prick.
Go back to consoles, Cliff Bleszinski, you’re only going to embarrass yourself.
If gaming have a cancer, its name is Cliff Bleszinski. John, you said you would never ever post again what that idiot said, now you do this? What gives man ? Let that troll Bleszinski whatever rot in hell where that bastard belong. Dont feed the troll that he is. Dont care about his game either.
Grudge much?
No Epic are not developing a f2p Unreal tournament, they are developing a FREE unreal tournament. Yes this is a different project.
If he actually delivers a high quality arena shooter all his sins will be forgiven.
CliffyB aka Dude Huge aka
the Tom Cruise of game development
Does that mean we finally get another Jazz Jackrabbit game.
I was pissed about some of the things he said about PC gaming, but that was several years ago and he’s obviously seen the light. How about we forgive him and not be pricks?
