The Unreal Tournament site has been updated with news of the release of the eagerly-anticipated full demo for Unreal Tournament. The changelog posted on the Unreal Technology page has word on what's new in the new release, which is 55 MB, and available as a Gigex download here, and as a downloadable installer on this page (again, using that theoretical "unlimited bandwidth"). The 10 MB patch for the Glide version of the demo is available here (Gigex), and here (for download). Here's the word from Mark Rein's update:

The full version of the new demo (55Mb) is now released. Modem users can download it from Gigex here - this is a resumable download so if your modem connection dies during the 55Mb download you can still get the file without starting the whole download over. Those using really fast connections and those behind firewalls should try here which is a more normal FTP-style download.

The patch for the existing 3DFX demo (10Mb) is also available now. Modem users can download it from Gigex at here - this is a resumable download so if your modem connection dies during the 10Mb download you can still get the file without starting the whole download over. Those using really fast connections and those behind firewalls should try here which is a more normal FTP-style download.

Win some UT goodies: If you download either version through Gigex, and provide your email address, you could be one of 50 lucky winners (chosen at random) to receive a long-sleeve, black UT T-shirt or be the one lucky winner to get a very exclusive Unreal Tournament leather jacket! Details appear with the download.

An incorrect version of the patch is floating around. A 7Mb version we distributed earlier for testing purposes only seems to have appeared on some sites - do not download this. It does not contain the new deathmatch map, DM-TempestDEMO. The proper name of the patch is UTDemo338cPatch.exe (note the "c" between 338 and Patch) and it's 10Mb rather than 7Mb.
