You may have heard that Unreal Tournament III
was getting a major expansion. This massive bomb of new game play, maps and features is now in the works to be released, and it's called the
Titan Pack. What's in it, you ask? A lot. And it's all yummy.
Unreal Tournament III: Titan Pack includes:
- 16 new environments
- three bonus map packs
- two new weapons
- two fun deployables
- the "Slow Field" power-up
- a new vehicle called the Stealthbender
- two new characters, Nova and Kana
- 57 Steam Awards and PlayStation Network Trophies
- A.I. enhancements, networking upgrades, better mod support
- client-side demo recording, new maplist, better server browser
- mid-game mutator and voting support for PC
- PS3: two player split screen and a new mod browser
- and best of all: Titans. You can turn into a 15ft tall Titan or a 30ft tall Behemoth and smash opponents while you laugh your ass off
And get this: all of this is absolutely free. This is all coming to the PS3 and PC on March 5th as a free download.
I had the pleasure of playing through just about all of the new inclusions earlier this week, and our hands-on preview will be coming very soon. As a preview, I will say now that turning into a Titan is an absolute blast. You become stupidly powerful, and this can easily turn the tables in battle. And the Behemoth? Talk about a power trip!
