Epic has announced that Unreal, Unreal 2 and Unreal Tournament 1999 are now officially freeware and are hosted by OldUnreal.

It will link you to OldUnreal for said games which host installers for each game that download the ISO and install the patches all in one go :)

You could say this announcement is totally Unreal.

Had the CD version. IIRC Far Cry was the first DVD PC game I had.

Have all of these on CD-ROM, and just reinstalled them this week on a 24H2 build that I rolled back to W10 22H2. Unreal, Unreal Gold and Unreal Tournament got the HD texture updates, and they look nice with Dohnal's OpenGL renderer at 1440p.

UT was the first PC game I ever bought, and I still have the box for it. You can fit a 5- to 10-minute deathmatch in anytime.

Has Unreal Tournament not been free all this time? You can still play it with the old client. God bless the days of dedicated servers.
