The gaming website 1up.com has recently posted a preview of the next generation Unreal Tournament game. This preview takes a look at the way the game is being made, the new features planned, and where the developers are getting their ideas.

It's not that these guys have pulled UT2K4 apart. They're rebuilding the game altogether. No wonder there's no art in the demo -- we're looking at the frame of the house before the Sheetrock has even gone up.

This is not an iteration, it's an entirely new game -- which is why it's entirely possible it won't be called Unreal Tournament 2006. "Yeah," Steve says, "It's a real generational change."

"We use the gameplay of 2004 as a base," Jim explains. "We wanted to start off with a known quantity so that as we made changes to it, we knew that they were [quantifiable] improvements -- it's not just different, it's different in ways we can point to specifically.
