Unreal II and Unreal Tournament Announced

Unreal II and Unreal Tournament Announced: GT Interactive Software announced today it has obtained exclusive global publishing rights to two new Unreal titles from Epic MegaGames.

Unreal II and Unreal Tournament Announced is the news today, and for late 1998 PC players that usually means one thing: another download, patch, demo, date, or box hitting shelves.

The important bit: GT Interactive Software announced today it has obtained exclusive global publishing rights to two new Unreal titles from Epic MegaGames. GT Interactive will publish Unreal II, and Unreal Tournament, a completely new entry in the category. GT also obtains an option to utilize the specially designed Unreal II engine to create additional software titles.

That is the kind of practical news that actually helps. Either grab it, patch it, or mark the date before the next flood of downloads buries it.
