Unreal Tournament 3 for PS3 has gone gold for North America!

Mark Rein · 11-21-2007, 03:58 PM

Folks,

The PlayStation 3 version of Unreal Tournament 3 has gone gold! We got news last night that Unreal Tournament 3 has been approved by SCEA and has been released to North American manufacturing.

Midway has started talking to retailers to figure out exact timing and they will have a formal announcement early next week when everyone is back from the Thanksgiving holiday. My guess is that Midway will start shipping the title to North American retailers on Monday December 10th and it could show up in stores as early as December 11th but more likely toward the middle of that week.

I think PS3 owners are going to really enjoy UT3 this holiday so make sure you get it on your shopping list!

For PAL territories, specifically UK and Europe, we have a few localization-related tasks to complete and then we should be starting the certification process pretty soon. My best guess is early next year (January or February) for the game to ship over there.

Yea BABY!!! The only reason I'm happy about this is because this means the 360 version can finally be talked about, worked on, and focused on!

Sweet!

If only it was out in the UK before Christmas. But hey, it's definitely worth the wait!
