We've got some exciting news to share. Epic Games has decided to make Unreal Engine 4 totally free for everyone.

If you are not aware yet, this is the engine we use for Urban Terror HD! It means that you can start mapping for Urban Terror HD now! Simply download Unreal Engine 4 and create a new map.

For the mappers interested in converting their old UrT 4.x maps to UrT HD, it's also possible. Please read this thread to get started!

We're setting up a new forum section dedicated to Urban Terror HD mapping, do not hesitate to ask for help.

We are happy to announce today the release of Urban Terror 4.2.023 which is probably the last version of the "4.2 era"! This release brings some minor bugfixes in anticipation of the NationsCup.

In the coming months we will be releasing a new version called Urban Terror 4.3 with a lot of new features and enhancements. You can read more about UrT 4.3 on our blogs.

Have fun!

The Urban Zone KNOCKOUT tournament is back, Sunday (11-01) at 16:00 CET on twitch.tv/urbanzone. If you're interested and want to read more about this event and signup visit their website.

After the event the NationsCup XVIII Group Draw will happen live, currently 17 nations have signed up. If your nation has not yet signed up you can still do so by following the information here.

Hey folks!

We hope that you had a great time with your family over the holidays, and it's now time to bring some fresh news from Urban Terror's competitive scene. The seasonal break with the traditional winter cup will soon be over as we are starting the most important cup of the year: the Nations Cup.
Once again hosted by Urban Zone, this competition will showcase the very best players from each country vying for the gold.

Last year, France won the competition, while Australia finished second and Brazil took third place over USA.
Because many of last year's top players have moved away from UrT, this year's outcome could be completely different. The teams will face each other in all of the three competitive gametypes (Team Survivor, Capture the Flag, Bomb Mode) to decide which country is the best at Urban Terror.

We are currently going through the captain designation process in the UZ forums. Players are free to apply to become the captain of their country, but competition experience is of course expected. The NC staff is also looking for people ready to help in the organization (GTV cameraman, newswriter, etc).

Here is the established program of this year's Nations Cup:

You can find more information on the NC in the news written on Urban Zone.

We're pleased to announce the release 4.2.022 of Urban Terror... with a little surprise! BladeKiller worked on some special player skins that will automatically be available in-game only for Christmas (from December 22nd to December 29th). We hope that you will like them!

Among the new features, our crazy coder clearskies developed a kick-ass advanced server filter for the server browser. Check it out!

Urban Terror 4.2.022 Changelog

We would like to thank iynque, DragonHeart, and MrYeah for their patch submissions as well as all the people reporting bugs on our Github repository, and of course the QA team who does an excellent job!
