So, great news!

Not too long ago, the folks at OldUnreal announced in their Discord server that they got permission from Epic Games to distribute two particular links from archive.org to download Unreal Gold and Unreal Tournament.

Now they’ve published installers for automating the installation process, as well as installing their patches on top of Unreal/UT.

The installers are available to download on the links down below:

Unreal Gold Installer: https://www.oldunreal.com/downloads/unreal/full-game-installers/

Unreal Tournament Installer: https://www.oldunreal.com/downloads/unrealtournament/full-game-installers/

These are Windows only, but Linux and macOS installers are also gonna be released sometime soon, it seems!

Enjoy!

    IIRC it has been 10 years since Tim Sweeney talked about open sourcing UE1. I don’t think it is gonna happen anytime soon, sadly.

    At least we still have Surreal Engine.
