Epic Games Teases “The Future Of Unreal Tournament” – New UT Title Powered By Unreal Engine 4?

Okay everyone, this may be HUGE. Epic Games has just tweeted that the future of Unreal Tournament will be unveiled this Thursday at 2PM ET. That information comes straight from both Mark Rein and Paul Meegan.

While Rein did not provide any additional information, Paul Meegan – Games, Unreal Engine and Publishing at Epic Games – claimed that both the UE4 Dev Community and Epic Games are involved in this project (which will most probably be powered by Unreal Engine 4).

This fact may mean that Epic Games is not developing a new UT title. Perhaps a standalone UE4 remake of UT is being developed by another developer? A free-to-play version of UT2K4 ported in Unreal Engine 4 also sounds plausible.

Strangely enough, a new video of a reworked UT map has appeared on YouTube yesterday. This map is created by YouTube’s member ‘mozidesigner’ who had this to say about this map:

“A long time ago I made a map called DM-Runoff in UT2k4. Now that UE4 is out I figured I get started with something familiar so I choose one location from the level and rebuilt that same scene using the assets provided within UE4.”

Here is hoping that Epic Games will unveil what most of us are waiting for (a new Unreal Tournament game) and not something related to this reworked map.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

[UPDATE]

Confirmed, Unreal Tournament is coming back as Mark Rein stated. Although Rein did not confirm whether this is a brand new game or a remake, it is a fact that a new UT project is under way!

    1. and shadow warrior and rise of the triad and flying wildhog has 2 projects that they havent anounced yet.

      If gearbox could make a oldschool duke that will be great

        1. yeah, amazing movie, great cinematography, amazing dialogues, alot of emotion, spiderman action scenes are far better than the last movie, there is pretty good story and continuity, the story is like the last batman movie, it has twists and alot of character progression, i am eager to see the next one.

          The first movie was not amazing at all, it was average and didnt do anything particulary impressive, this one however is a must watch movie.

          I only wish i didnt watch it with 3d, so i could see more detail during the fightscenes, i had no idea what was going on at the clocktower fight with green goblin, too much bluriness due to 3d. I will download a brip to watch it again. The sad thing is that it has only 2 villians and a mech rhino makes an appearance at the end, the other villians will be in the sequel apparently.

          I still cant believe how good the dialogues and the music direction were.

          Oh and another thing, the movie is filled with sony vaios, like sony saying “yeah we dont know what to do with all those laptops, just shove them in spiderman 2”

          1. I’m glad you enjoyed it, I’ll wait for a Yify rip in a few months time though, lol to the Sony advert plugs. I haven’t seen Thor 2 yet, it looked and sounded terrible…

          2. Thor 2 trailers looked like it was a subpar lowbudget movie like the last underworld movie, but when i watched it, it was pretty damn good, so yeah watch it, its a good movie.

            Sadly i missed captain america 2 and i wanted to go watch that, ill wait for a brip. Since we are on movies subject, prometheous was bad for a single reason, it build up the anticipation so well and it was well made but it didnt answer any questions to aliens and it was hardly related to aliens not to mention the tons of plotwists, on the other hand oblivion is how you make a godamn sci fi movie, so watch oblivion, it worths it.

            I havent watched pacific rim or elysium yet, any of them worth them?

          3. I would like to see Captain America 2, even though I’ve gone off of comic book films of late (getting old lol). I didn’t like Prometheus at all, looked great though. As for Oblivion, I loved every minute of it, oh and the amazing soundtrack by M83 is sublime, downloaded it straight away. Pacific Rim looked great but felt very empty, no real story, it just felt like a silly computer game. And Elysium was better, but again, no real character progression, back story, or real plot 🙁 But hey, they’re free, it just costs your time :O

          4. Let me be a bit of a buzzkill here and say they’re not really free. Getting it for free and it actually being free aren’t the same.

          5. Brip sucks ,if you live on US you probably got an 5MB/s conection, download the full HD torrent ,is only 40GB .

          6. It really worth it ,come on ,if you’re a pc gamer you must know that the difference is pretty darn good.

          7. 40gb? no way, after seeing spiderman 2 i was able to see how old emma stone is thanks to all the detail on her skin, i dont need that kinda detail no thanks.

          8. Well thats really sad and maked me smile (the last part of your comment). xd

          9. cuz you know, sony was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo gonna ditch the sony vaio division that is exactly why they used so much subliminal advertizing in spiderman 2. Because they were sooooooooooo gonna sell the vaio division and not use the movie to advertize their low selling laptop brand.

            Damn those sony fanboys have no idea just how much they are brainwashed.

          10. I agree with all these points. The movie was brilliantly shot from the beginning till the end. Also, amazing performances all around. Especially Dane Dehaan as goblin. Holy shit does that guy know how to be a badass.

            Also, that last scene. That was amazing. The music was absolutely breathtaking too. Love how before max becomes the villain, his theme is played in flute and other organic instruments. However once he becomes electro, the themes get electronic. His paranoia is further touched with the hectic lyrics of paranoia.

            I really loved this movie, was so damn good!

          11. yeah the music and the dialogues were breathtaking they had me so many times, i cant explain it but the way the music and the scenes were, it was like watching the next cod trailer the music cues are spot on with what you see at that moment.

            Wtf is the deal with all those sony vaios in the movie anyway?

        2. just please don’t play this horrible spiderman game out now, it wasn;t worth the time i spent ( about 10 minutes ) downloading it off torrents. Horrible.

          1. It looked bad enough for me to now torrent, so don’t worry 🙂 I want to download Watchdogs but the multiplayer looks like good fun, so might have to buy it.

          2. i got a watchdogs digital edition key from my 770gtx purchase so i’m set. But i agree, just like dark souls 2, you need to pay to experience the full game because the online component it’s such a big and cool part of it. I can’t wait to hack some of my friends.

      1. I wish Gearbox and Interceptor would settle their troubles so a proper Duke game can be made. Not really looking forward to that top-down RPG or whatever they’re making right now. I want the proper macho, gun-blazing, womanizing Duke back. Too bad Forever wasn’t so successful; it had potential.

  1. OMG I LOVE UT!!!! UT2004 is the FKING BEST SHIT TO EVER HAPPENED IN LIFE!!, it better not be like fking UT3 or ima KEEL someone

      1. lol unreal 1 and cod 1 are still played today even doom 1 and 2 with skulltag.

        “pc gaming”

        Find me someone playing cod 4 on consoles, NO ONE!!!

        1. There is loads of people still playing COD 4 on consoles ( Last night was a good gaming night ) with that game and COD wAw. You would be surprised.

          1. Nah, that’s not the case as most gamers go back to games they own, and COD 4 has always been popular with gamers.

  2. Unreal Free to Play sounds about right. I still hope someday they will make an Unreal singleplayer game again.

  3. “A free-to-play version of UT2K4 ported in Unreal Engine 4 also sounds plausible.”

    I like this idea, ut3 sucked.

  4. A true successor of the last awesome UT game, ie, UT2K4…..THAT WUD B AWESOME!!!
    Just imagine how awesome it would to play a UT game that pushes the PC’s to its limits…will bring back the memories from late 90s-early 2000’s….

    1. Unreal, amazing game.

      Unreal tournament, no sp, too lazy to make a campaign.

      unreal 2, not even a unreal game, too short, no mp on launch it was only made to show off the engine’s features and sell it.

      unreal tournament 2003, severly lacking on content too busy selling their engine.

      unreal tournament 2004, a year later and the game is packed with enough content as if you installed 50 mods, but it is essentially unreal tournament 2003 with extra content.

      unreal tournament 3, they said they gonna improve singleplayer and they gonna appeal to pc gamers, game sucked, buggy at launch, sold bad, they blame piracy for that, despite that the pc version sold more than the console versions combined, then epic games wonders why pc gamers hate them nowdays.

  5. I dont give a F*CK!

    I want a a real game aka singelplayer “Unreal” like the good ole days!
    That game was awesome and the graphics was one of a kind when it was released 🙂

    1. Replayed it a while ago, it still is awesome.

      Great atmosphere, great ai and you need to think were you need to go next no magical marker or doors closing behind you to prevent you getting lost.

      1. Yeah it’s a really fantastic game and the sound when you come out of the ship into the planet was amazing, what an atmosphere 🙂

  6. please god don;t let it have versions of deck 17 i am so sick and tired of playing the same maps for 16 years in every version of ut. I hate that for CS and UT. In cs even now with CSGO they still play dust, dust 2 inferno nuke aztec….
