In case you were wondering about Unreal Tournament 2007 demo plans, this post by Steve Polge on the Epic Games forums mentions that a demo will be released "long enough before we go gold to be able to incorporate feedback". Polge also mentions that well over 40 maps for the game are currently in development, though some of those might be cut before release. Thanks Voodoo Extreme.

I am hesistant to call these screenshots, because they look about as real as Lindsay Lohan's chest.

Getting the flow of content started in the new year is David with his preview of Unreal Tournament 2007, offering an overview of the game and quotes from Epic producer Jeff Morris. So pretty looking. Epic's latest multiplayer shooter is due out later this year.

Many of the nine UT2004 vehicles have been revamped to be grouped into the Axon Team. Facing off against Axon is the brand new Necris team, which will have their own set of nine vehicles. Someone at Epic must be a "Back to the Future II" fan, because one of these new rides happens to be none other than a hoverboard. (Though hopefully sans the pink color scheme and "Mattel" label.) Tim says that while it's technically not a vehicle, "the new hoverboard is quickly becoming a play test favorite. Instead of your trusty rocket launcher, hoverboard riders have a grapple that they can use to latch onto other vehicles. It's quite a sight to see a Hellbender towing three hoverboard riding teammates into the fray behind it." So basically, you've got power, McFly! Let's hope these hoverboards can go over water.

There's a post by an Epic Games producer on the Atari Unreal Tournament forums, replying to a fan's question about the release of Unreal Tournament 2007.

IGN got to sit down with Epic lead level designer James Brown at the Leipzig Games Convention, asking him about the upcoming Unreal Tournament 2007. The article touches on load times, the environments, and improved gameplay.

"The only load is when you join a server in UT 2007. Once that match ends, the game will pop you right into the next one." James explained that the streaming technology would let the engine anticipate the next bout and prepare for it, which will cut back on a lot of gaming downtime. Expect this to apply to the singleplayer ladder matches and to online engagements. Of course, UT will still provide competitive players an opportunity to check their scores and stats before rocketing them all into another round.
