Epic Teases The Future Of Unreal Tournament
Epic employees have started tweeting teases about the future of Unreal Tournament, which will be revealed later this week.
The company is holding a Twitch event on its Unreal Engine channel on Thursday, May 8 at 2 p.m. Eastern.
Included in some of the tweets from the likes of Mark Rein (Epic co-founder), Paul Meegan (VP of product development), and Dana Cowley (marketing manager) is the hashtag #FirstBlood.

Our Take:
At a time when the Unreal name has become more synonymous with the engines than the shooter, and with Epic dabbling with Fortnite, it's the perfect time to bring back the venerable FPS franchise.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
