New Onslaught Mode Maps for "Unreal Tournament 2004" AvailablePosted on Tuesday, April 06, 2004 @ 05:01:48 am E.S.T
Microsoft today announced that Windows XP users can now download two new Onslaught Mode maps for Unreal Tournament 2004 from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/games/downloads/xpextras.asp . The first new Onslaught map, Ascendancy, challenges players to battle over tarydium crystal mines on the second moon of Kaldor Prime. The road ends at Aridoom, the second map, where only the jutting spires of age-old mesas guard players from the elements...and in this case the elements are tank shells. Both maps are free downloads for Windows XP players who have purchased Unreal Tournament 2004.
Onslaught is an epic-in-scope team-based challenge that pits two teams in bitter warfare across massive terrain maps in a frag-filled battle to destroy, capture and hold key power nodes. Vehicles play a major role as war-hardened flying and driving machines transport combatants to the “front” and serve as mobile platforms to launch devastating attacks on the enemy.
In Unreal Tournament 2004, players suit up as the ultimate techno-gladiator of the future, taking their fates into their own hands as they battle up to 32 other players in action-packed, frag-filled arenas. Unreal Tournament 2004 contains new maps for all established game modes, including Capture the Flag, Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Bombing Run and Double Domination, as well as all new arenas for the two additional styles of play – Onslaught and Assault. In addition, Unreal Tournament 2004 contains all of the maps, mutators and game types – such as Mutant, Last Man Standing and Invasion – from Unreal Tournament 2003 and the free downloadable bonus packs for that game. Unreal Tournament 2004 is available now worldwide in both a standard and a "Special Edition" format. For more information, please visit http://www.unrealtournament.com/ut2004/ .
