Since Unreal Tournament 3 was freely playable to everyone last weekend, the play time online increased a massive 2000%. Valve announced that the free weekend spiked the amount of purchases of the game as well, so it’s no surprise that another free weekend of UT3 is coming. The game will be freely played on March 13-15. The title has now a new promotional price as well: only $11.99, which will run until March 22. Thereafter it’s the usual $19.99.
Unreal Tournament 3 has been highly anticipated, but has greatly disappointed in sales compared to previous UT titles. The new price offerings and free play is sure to increase the sales of an otherwise great multiplayer shooter.
