where to buy

Post by RottenOso »

Hello everyone, it's been years since I've played. Not sure if anyone would remember me, for the most part I went by Whiskey, if you're old enough to be from Heat.net I was david13npiw on there. Anyways, I've been wanting to play again and I can't find the game anywhere. Any suggestions on where to look?

Honestly, if you want a legit copy, buy a used disc off of ebay or something. On digital distribution platforms, Unreal franchise is delisted everywhere.

Now, less savory ways of obtaining the games should be clear to any internet denizen with their head screwed on straight but if you need help, stick to PMs. Mine are always open.

🏴‍☠🦜⛵☠️🏴⚓ Yarr! There surely are some good ol'e Pirates left on the interwebs that can lead you to a fine copy of Unreal, Unreal Gold, Totally Unreal or Unreal Anthology. But we are not allowed to link to the good stuff here because of legal reasons. ⚓🏴☠️🏴⛵🦜


But imo nothing beats a legal, physical copy. You need a CD-ROM/DVD-ROM player (External USB DVD-burners are super cheap these days)
Unreal, Unreal Gold, Totally Unreal or Unreal Anthology can still be found as new-old-stock at shopping platforms like Amazon. Unreal has been sold for a very long time so there should be plenty of secondhand copies offered at sites like eBay, Craigslist, Marktplaats.nl, Medimops.de and whatever local selling sites there are.

The sad thing is that, with all digital delivery platforms Unreal seems to be unavailable for some reason. Even store.epicgames.com does not sell Unreal. Steam does not have it. GOG does not have it. So either buy an old physical copy or go with the pirates.

Right now, a number of Unreal CDs are available on Amazon and eBay. They vary from 30 to 5€, it's not hard to get your hands on it.

thanks everyone. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't over looking an easier way to buy it, like a digital download. I decided to go ahead and order it on amazon and it should be here in a week or 2.
