Rock, Paper, Shotgun points out that Air Buccaneers, the popular UT2004 modification, is getting a remake courtesy of the original developer, Ludocraft, and by way of UDK.

Remember the Make Something Unreal price-winner MOD from 2004? AirBuccaneers is a compelling combination of graceful air ballet, fierce pirate-like action and tactical maneuvering in true 3D. It is a classical team deathmatch game with a unique gameplay that lures players to collaborate in the epic and movie-like aerial battles. The game combines the slow-paced suspense of fog-of-war with the adrenalin rush provided by the intense smoke-filled battle of airborne hot air balloons.

The work has started, funds are being raised and the LudoCraft team is preparing for a mighty comeback!

Omfg, the concept of this was so awesome. I only ever got to play with 3 other people though, 2 on 2.

THE TIME IS UPON US MY FRIENDS. ALL HANDS, MAN YOUR BATTLESTATIONS!

They should simply stick to Air Buccaneers.
Tripwire didn't rename Killing Floor either.

AirBuccaneers name issue

They should simply stick to Air Buccaneers.
Tripwire didn't rename Killing Floor either.

Nothing has been decided yet, so the name is still open for suggestions. We wanted to separate the original mod from the future version, so that's why the "HD". However, will the forthcoming AirBuccaneers be a sequel or graphics/playability boosted version is still hidden among the cannon smoke.

Check out http://www.ludocraft.com/airbuccaneers for more information. We'll be adding a forum feature pretty soon, so you can post your ideas, feedback and other suggestions.

Keep buccaneering!
