Last year's release of Unreal Tournament 3 got solid reviews but didn't get quite the sales that the first two games in the series did. However that isn't stopping both developer Epic Games and publisher Midway with going forward with a "major" expansion to the multiplayer-oriented shooter.

Speaking to Eurogamer, Epic VP Mark Rein said only that the UT3 expansion pack will "excite and grow our UT3 customer base". There's no word on what the expansion will contain, how much it might cost and no word on whether or not it will be made available for download. Rein also stated that the original game had sold through "over a million units" world wide. It's not clear, however, how many of those copies were for the PC version of the game.
