How many characters will be in the game on launch?

Wells: 18. Between 18 and 20, actually. Six teams, some are three members and some are four. By the time we're all done we may actually have 24.

So which series characters are returning for Unreal Tournament III?

Wells: Malcolm will be returning, among others. And Lauren will also be back as well, although this will be a predecessor in that she won't be on the Necris side but on the Iron Guard side.

Have you ever considered giving the characters unique abilities to make them more individual?

Wells: Well that's really a game design aspect, so we can suggest ideas but that's ultimately up to them. But we have considered it.

Which videogame character do you most wish you could have created?

Wells: I've always been a fan of the Final Fantasy series, so I would love to have been responsible for creating the latest version of Bahamut, the king of the dragons. That would be my favorite.
