The Unreal series may have been shelved years ago, but Epic is letting its first two installments live on through the Internet Archive.
Every 10,000 cycles Epic has a small w. I’ll take it.
Oh man, UT2004 was my fave arena death match back in the day, so much fun. Hope they release more!
While I don’t approve of Epic’s stabs at exclusivity, Steam needs a competitor to keep it in check, and one that is making some efforts to support the preservation of art is a welcome choice.
But GOG is alresdy the Steam with Principles…
As much as I like them I don’t think you can call them a competitor.
I’ve seen games that are available on both platforms that sell hundreds of times more copies on Steam simply because of steam’s reputation.
A competitor actually has to be able to compete.
Sussy, but i’m glad
Winning move from Epic. Showing what should be done for abandoned games. Give it back to the people so it can continued to be enjoyed by the community that will continue to care for it.
There’s literally no reason not to do that. The game has long since made money and keeping it out of public ownership is now not doing anyone any favors.
Some studios are just intransigent.
