$1 Million Intel Make Something Unreal Contest Launches 04-03-2008

Intel and Epic have teamed up to commence an all-new mod competition, the "$1 Million Intel Make Something Unreal Contest," with winnings – including cash, hardware and even an Unreal Engine 3 license – exceeding $1 million. The contest will be judged in four preliminary phases starting in June 2008 and culminate with a grand final in fall 2009. Aspiring game developers will enter by creating mods for the PC version of Unreal Tournament 3 in a wide range of categories including environments, characters, weapons, gameplay, tools, vehicles and more. Mod-makers will use the same world-class Unreal Engine 3 toolset used to create Unreal Tournament 3 and Gears of War. Click here to read the full press release.
