Epic has released a new update for its upcoming, community-developed Unreal Tournament reboot, this time letting players explore Outpost 23, the game’s first fully-textured map.
The collaborative project has been opened up in the last few weeks by the announcement that the Unreal Engine 4 tools are now freely available for everyone. Well, as long as you pay Epic a 5% cut of all your sales, that is.
Since Unreal Tournament’s an Epic game, of course, that doesn’t matter here. I’m sure the community will come up with some vistas to rival Outpost 23’s visuals, which are already pretty darned impressive, as you can see in the above video from Youtuber Zaccabus. This is a map that Epic’s shown off before, but with added high-res textures and improved lighting it’s quite something to see.
How times have changed since I used to waste my youth on the original 1999 Unreal Tournament trying to get headshots with the Redeemer.
