Epic VP Mark Rein revealed that they are working together with Midway on a "major expansion" for Unreal Tournament 3 (PS3, Xbox 360, Windows PC). Rein maintains that Epic relations with Midway are doing alright, dispelling rumors that the two would part ways saying, "Midway is still very much the publisher of Unreal Tournament 3."

In fact, we're working together on a major expansion to Unreal Tournament 3, that we expect will excite and grow our UT3 customer base which, incidentally, now numbers over a million units sold-through world-wide.

Rein didn't give any more details, but given the number of problems that Unreal Tournament titles have experienced, a major expansion is necessary indeed. It's a pretty good game as it is, but we'd like to play with more people.
