Epic Games has some bad news for Unreal Tournament 3 fans looking forward to new content on their PlayStation 3s. That "Titan Pack" expansion planned to hit the PC and PS3 tomorrow... won't.
Originally timed for tomorrow's PlayStation Store update, adding new maps, units, vehicles, characters and more, Epic cites unforeseen certification problems. Instead, it will arrive on March 19th, two weeks later than previously expected. Epic's Steve Polge explains on the developer's official forums.
"Unfortunately, due to circumstances out of our control, the certification process for the PS3 patch and DLC has taken much longer than we expected," Polge writes. "The PC patch contains updates that will improve mods cooked for PS3, so we'll be taking advantage of this extra time to work with mod authors to make sure the best mods for UT3 are cooked with the latest patch."
Polge also adds a little frowning emoticon, small concession to those looking forward to the new goods. But clearly it's hitting Epic Games hard.
Sorry kids!
