Unreal Tournament coming back via UE4

Epic executives Mark Rein and Paul Meegan have revealed via Twitter that the next game in the long-running Unreal Tournament franchise will debut next Thursday via a Twitch TV livestream. The new Unreal Tournament game will be the first major PC and console title the studio has unveiled since Chinese online giant Tencent acquired a significant stake in the company.

RT @CodeSe7en: @MarkRein @Storm360 UT is coming back!? I've been begging for this very thing! <-Yes UT coming back!

The most recent prior installment of the franchise is Unreal Tournament III, which was released by Midway for the PC and PlayStation 3 in 2007, and Xbox 360 in 2008. It served a showcase for the company's Unreal Engine 3.

It's about time, I was beginning to think they killed the series off.

I know the feeling, I play UT3 on the odd occasion but I still play 04 at least once a week.

I enjoy UT3. Not as good at Ut 04, or 03 but still have fun with it. I like playing with the bots quite a bit. Twitch and splatter is always fun. Looking forward to some UT in Unreal 4 personally.
