During a stream on Twitch, Epic announced that work has begun on the next installment of their flagship arena shooter franchise. The game will be free and supported through a community-driven model similar to Valve&#8217;s Team Fortress 2. Subscribers to Epic&#8217;s Unreal Engine 4 development tools will be able to create content for the game and sell their creations with a percentage of those sales going to Epic. Developer Steven Polge <a href=\"https:\/\/forums.unrealengine.com\/showthread.php?4474-The-Future-of-Unreal-Tournament\">posted<\/a> an outline of the plan, including a caveat explaining that this will be a collaborative effort.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>A lot of this is brand new for Epic, and we don&#8217;t yet have everything figured out. Things will probably definitely go wrong from time to time, and when they do, we&#8217;ll have to work through them together. There will be a lot of tough decisions to make, and not every feature will make it into the game. But if you&#8217;re a fan of Unreal Tournament, a UE4 developer, or a future modder &#8211; or if you just want to learn how we make games &#8211; we hope you&#8217;ll join us. It&#8217;s going to be fun.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Epic says that the development process with the community begins today on the forums.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Epic Games has revealed their plans for bringing back Unreal Tournament.
