Tužan dan za sve Unreal Tournament fanove. Naime Tim Sweeney (Osnivač, Tehnički i Izvršni direktor Epic Games-a) je za g4tv.com rekao da Epic nema namjeru izbaciti novi Unreal Tournament nekoliko godina.

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

No ipak je Sweeney napomenuo da će Epic nastaviti potporu za modding zajednicu, “otvaranjem engina” kako bi ga se moglo lakše koristiti. Koristiti čak do te mjere da se našalio da će im UT4 i 5 biri riješeni od zajednice.

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
