Epic Games has revealed that the PS3 patch for Unreal Tournament 3 has passed worldwide cert and will be made available over the PlayStation Network on March 27th, 2008.
We’ve got a list of the issues that have been address below. As you can see, the US version has a far greater number of fixes because the European version contained less bugs as it was released later. Perhaps getting games late isn’t such a bad thing after all.
