10 Promising Video Games You Didn't Know Were Coming In 2016
9. Unreal Tournament (PC)
It feel strange to mention the illustrious Unreal Tournament in a list of games you might not know about, but there's a high chance you weren't aware that a new one is in the works, and it'll be completely free. Not freemium, not 'free-to-play' or any of that devious toss - just free. The reason for this is that the game is being made in a collaboration between developer Epic and the gaming community. Gamers have open access to the game's source code and Unreal Editor, and are being invited to submit their own character designs, mutators and blueprints to tweak the gameplay. Epic is still overseeing the core design of the game, but its reliance on volunteers means that what we're getting is a labour of love and ode to that long-lost Unreal Tournament gameplay of old - but revamped beautifully in Unreal Engine 4. The pre-alpha for Unreal Tournament is available to download here, so you can join in as a player and give your feedback to help build the latest chapter in the much-loved arena shooter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POcdrHSJUY0
