No New Unreal Tournament Game In The Works

No New Unreal Tournament Game In The WorksWe’re sure that when Epic Games took to the stage at GDC 2014 earlier yesterday, many expected them to perhaps announce a new game, like a new Unreal Tournament for example. If you have been playing FPS games long enough, Unreal Tournament was one of the more played FPS games back in the day, along with titles like Counter-Strike and Half-Life 2.

Unfortunately apart from the release of Unreal Tournament III back in 2007, we have not heard word about a new Unreal Tournament game since and given that it’s been 7 years, safe to say many think that it’s about time that a new game is announced. Sorry to disappoint but it seems that Epic Games will not be releasing a new Unreal Tournament game anytime soon. (more…)

    Cliff Bleszinski quits Epic Games, leaves us with an Unreal feeling

    Cliff Bleszinski quits Epic Games, leaves us with an Unreal feeling

    Fall must be the season for sea changes in the game industry. Just weeks after BioWare’s founders retired, key Epic Games veteran and Design Director Cliff Bleszinski (known to many as just CliffyB) is hanging up his hat. He simply describes it as taking a “much needed break,” which makes sense when you see his development experience: he joined Epic’s crew with Dare to Dream Volume One in 1993 and has nurtured virtually every major (and often minor) game franchise at the company since, including the Jazz Jackrabbit platformers, untold numbers of games in the Unreal line and most recently the Gears of War series. Bleszinski hasn’t said where he’s headed next, although it’s hard to imagine him switching professions like the two BioWare doctors — for many, he’s synonymous with certain eras of first- and third-person shooters. Wherever he goes, we wish him the best of success.
