PS3's Unreal Tournament Exclusivity In Doubt...

Epic Games' boss Mark Rein has stated that there is "no guarantee" Unreal Tournament 3 will make its November release on PC and PS3, casting doubts as to whether the title will remain a PlayStation 3 console exclusive this year.

At Sony's E3 conference in June, Sony made a big deal of Unreal Tournament 3 being exclusive to the PlayStation 3 in 2007, with publisher Midway confirming a November release.

But any delays would see the shooter slip dangerously close to its release on Xbox 360 in early 2008.

"We do not know exactly when the game will be completed," wrote Rein on Epic's official forums.

"All we've said is that we're hoping for a November release, but as you know we value getting it right over getting it right now, so there's no guarantee of that," he said.

Would be interesting to see its release slip closer to 360 versions because Sony have been using this as a campaign to get hype for PS3 exclusives. Also Mark Rein and Microsoft have a good relationship after success of Gears Of War on 360 and now with it heading to PC also.
