Unreal Tournament

Published by GT Interactive Software Corp.
Developed by Epic Games, Inc.
Released 1999
Genre Action

Description :

Unreal Tournament is completely different to Unreal it's now mainly based on multiplayer.

At the beginning, you have to play classic deathmatch rounds. After you have successfully won some of them, a new game mode becomes available, domination. In domination there are about 3 or 4 different areas scattered around the map to be controlled by your team. For a certain amount of seconds you control one area, a point is added to your score. The more areas you control, the faster your team's score rises. When you or the other team reaches a certain score, the game is over. The 3rd mode is called capture the flag, every team has a flag to defend and tries to capture the other team's flag to score a point.

The 4th game mode is probably the most innovative one, it's called assault. These are real missions, like you have to attack an enemy base and destroy something in it. Again, there are two teams, the defenders and the attackers. You have to complete the mission in a certain time, like 5 or 10 minutes. If you were successfull, your team has to defend this time and the other team attacks. But the attacking team now only has as much time as you needed to attack.

All these modes are either playable in single or multiplayer mode. If playing alone, you have a large menu with orders you can give your bots. Also, all weapons were redesigned, and some new ones are added. The game uses Unreal's graphics engine.

Trivia :
  • Unreal Tournament is on the Index of the BPjS in Germany. This occurred on 28.02.2002, over 2 years past release. Games on this index have to be hidden in the stores, and mustn't be advertised in any way anymore, but are still available on request for adults in the stores.
  • The Unreal engine was greatly enhanced (and fixed) before the release of Unreal Tournament.The Unreal engine, in software rendering mode, is one of the only popular commercial 3D engines that supports dithering interpolation at high resolutions for very smooth texture appearance.
  • The Dreamcast version does not have assault mode as all the maps save one were too large to fit in Dreamcast's memory. It is replaced in single-player by a new challenge mode, which is a series of one-on-one battles.
