Unreal Tournament is certainly looking better and better, particularly on Linux. Last night Epic unveiled a new map, called Underland, a swampy arena housed in ancient ruins. which also happens to be a Deathmatch level for six to eight people.
But first, go to the forum page and download the Linux build HERE.
As usual, make the game have the necessary permissions to launched at:
/LinuxNoEditor/Engine/Binaries/Linux/UE4-Linux-Shipping
Then launch the game by appending “UnrealTournament”:
cd /LinuxNoEditor/Engine/Binaries/Linux/
./UE4-Linux-Shipping UnrealTournament
Unreal Tournament is still in pre-alpha and there is no release date as of yet. So all of you fans will recognise some of the weapons from UT games of old, alongside the classic map Facing Worlds.
