Det är osannolikt att vi kommer att få se ett nytt Unreal Tournament de närmaste åren. Detta enligt Epic Games VD Tim Sweeney som i en intervju med G4TV ger fans av spelserien trista nyheter.
"Unreal Tournament is certainly a major long-term priority but we're planning not to release a major retail game in the series for several years. So we have that effort somewhat on hold while we work on a few other initiatives", berättar Sweeney.
Unreal Tournament III har sålt bra och är fortfarande väldigt populärt tack vare expansionen Titan Pack samt engagemanget hos kreativa spelare. Sweeney förklarar:
"We almost solve the Unreal Tournament 4 and 5 problem ourselves by just making this toolset available because the community has done more than we could have ever hoped to do internally."
