Cliffy B. from Epic Games stopped by the CPL Event this afternoon to give those in attendence an update on the Unreal franchise and what we can all expect to see from it in the future. The biggest Unreal event has been the debut of Unreal II, which can be played at the PNY / NVIDIA booth. Unreal II contains the same fantastic graphics as we've seen in Unreal Tournament 2003, but weaves them together into a tight storyline. Unlike in the original Unreal, Unreal II is more akin to Halo, with lots of constant interaction with allies, enemies and the environment. Gamers can also expect more of a plot this time out, rather than just journeying through a vast alien world with no real clues as to what's happening or why.
Unreal II is currently working its way through the release candidate process and is expected to go gold any day now. Gamers should see it on store shelves sometime in February 2003, and you can find the best preorder prices here.
