Epic hands out prizes for best UT3 mods News

Epic Games has picked and listed the best user-created pieces of content for Unreal Tournament 3.

This concludes the second phase of the Make Something Unreal Tournament, and will share a pool of USD 70,000 among the star finishers.

The winning entries will be showcased at the Game Developers Conference in late March. Or you can download them now, by clicking on the various links below. We organised them for you, that's very nice of us.

Phase 3 begins in April and the entry deadline is 15th May. Participation in previous phases is not necessary.

The Make Something Unreal competition will eventually hand out USD 1 million in prizes, ranging from computer components up to a licence for Unreal Engine 3 - undoubtedly the engine-star of this generation.

More importantly the competition unearths some serious talent, most of which has been snapped up by Epic over the years.

Last year Tripwire won with World War II shooter Red Orchestra, which can be snapped up on Steam now.
