You probably remember that in October 2003, Atari announced that Unreal Tournament 2004 had been delayed...until 2004. Even so the game was scheduled for a February release, the latest installment in Epic Games' didn't make it to market until the middle of March.
And you know that history has the irony of repeating itself. Well here we are again. The Unreal fans will have the slight feeling of déjà vu regarding the latest installment in the series. Today, representatives for Midway Games, announced that Unreal Tournament 2007 will not be released in time for the 2006 holiday season and fans we'll see it in 2007.
"Right now, UT 2007 (PC) is slated to hit in the first half of 2007," the spokesperson said. But is annoying because the game was announced in 2005 with a 2006 release and here we are again. And from this we can expect that the game could conceivably not ship until June 2007. The game will aim PCs, and there is no news about some other platform versions, even if we hope that the delay will give the developer the time to do something about this.
"The next gen version(s) of UT2007 have yet to be tagged with an exact ship date yet. Nothing is yet confirmed... but I would say that your assumption is relatively plausible, said the representative. Still "big announcement" regarding the game is expected to be launched later this week.
