One of the biggest online first-person-shooters was Unreal Tournament. Despite it’s popularity, it’s been absent since Unreal Tournament 3 in 2007. Now the series is looking to come back and looking for fans to help with the development process.
A small development team made up of Unreal Tournament veterans will be starting development on the new game today.
Unreal Tournament fans and developers that have access to forms where they can provide feedback, advice, or anything else to contribute to the game.
Developers that have access to the Unreal Engine 4 will be able to obtain all codes and content of the game to also help contribute to the development of the game, and for their own Unreal Tournament content.
Epic also announced that the game will be completely free throughout the development of the game and even after it is released.
There will also soon be an online marketplace for players, developers, and creators to purchase, sell, trade, and give away assorted content for the new Unreal Tournament game. Content sold this way will be split between Epic and the developer in order for Epic to pay for the game.
