A Love Letter to Unreal

On January 24th, 2023, Epic Games will entirely shutdown Unreal Tournament 4, and has made accessing legacy titles more challenging than ever. This is my plea, and love letter, to a series that has carried me through most of my life, in one way, or another. UPDATE: The Unreal games are no longer available for sale on GOG. UPDATE 3/21/26: Unreal Gold, Unreal Tournament GOTY, and Unreal Tournament 2004 are all available for free via OldUnreal with Epic's blessing. You can download them and get up and running in minutes with modern quality of life updates provided by the community. UT3 and UT4 remain unavailable officially. https://www.oldunreal.com/downloads/ How to save your copy of Unreal Tournament 4:    • How to save your copy of Unreal Tournament 4   Credits: Unreal Gold Gameplay - ‪@GamePlayShare‬ Music - Unreal Main Title, Unreal Tournament Menu Theme, Nali Chant, Foregone Destruction by Alexander Brandon Music - Unreal Tournament Main Theme (2015) by Fabian Joosten Music - Chasing Voids by Timothy Seals © 2022 Nick Burns.
