New Unreal Tournament Game to Arrive on Linux for Free
================================================================================
![](http://i1-news.softpedia-static.com/images/news2/New-Unreal-Tournament-Game-to-Arrive-on-Linux-for-Free-441291-3.jpg)
**Epic Games has announced that the next Unreal Tournament game in the series will be free and available on Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X.**
The developers from Epic Games have followed through with their promise for [Linux support with the new Unreal Engine 4][1], and now they've confirmed that Linux will be a launch platform for the next Unreal Tournament game.
The announcement regarding the development and release of the Unreal Tournament title for the Linux platform also comes with a few new interesting ideas that could change the way games are made, if the project becomes a real success.
First of all, Unreal Tournament will be free. When users hear free, it's usually just free-to-play, meaning that they will have to pay money for additional content and advantages over the other players. This is not the case with Unreal Tournament, and Epic Games is trying a different business approach.
After the game is made available to the public for free, the developers will also build a marketplace around the game where the community can sell the content for Unreal Tournament. The proceeds will be split between the makers of the content and Epic.
In theory, this will be enough to pay for the game. This is not an entirely new concept because it's been applied in a somewhat similar fashion with Team Fortress 2, although it sounds to be more advanced than that.
Epic Games has also said that the development is conducted by a small team of UT veterans, which have already started work on it, but here is where the interesting stuff happens.
“From the very first line of code, the very first art created and design decision made, development will happen in the open, as a collaboration between Epic, UT fans and UE4 developers. Well be using forums for discussion, and Twitch streams for regular updates.”
“If you are a fan and you want to participate, create a free account and join the forum discussion. All code and content will be available live to UE4 developers on GitHub,” reads the official [announcement][2].
Having the game developed under the scrutiny of the community is a major step forward and it will bring the studio closer to its audience. It also means that the game will be a lot closer to what the public is expecting and not to what the developers think the public is expecting.
It will take a while for the game to playable in any kind of form, but users will be able to track its development in real time. If what Epic Games is saying comes to fruition, we might be playing a Beta version by the end of the year.

How To Disable UEFI Secure Boot In Windows 8 & 8.1
================================================================================
![](http://itsfoss.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Disable_Secure_Boot_Windows8_UEFI.jpeg)
These days, if you buy a computer pre-installed with Windows, youll end up with either Windows 8 or Windows 8.1. Starting with Windows 8, Microsoft replaced BIOS with UEFI. UEFI is not something that Microsoft invented, instead its a protocol in existence before Windows 8. Some Mac devices have been using UEFI for some time now.
With UEFI comes the feature of “secure boot” which boots only those boot loaders that are signed in to UEFI firmware. This security feature prevents rootkit malware and provides an additional layer of security. But it has a down side, if you want to dual boot Windows 8 with Linux, Secure Boot will not allow it. Therefore it is advised to **disable secure boot in Windows 8 to allow dual booting with Linux**.
### Disable UEFI secure boot in Windows 8 and 8.1 ###
There have been too many noises around secure boot. Because of these rumors, some people almost believed that dual boot to Linux is not possible with pre-installed Windows 8. While that is true for Arm PCs, secure boot can be disabled in Intel based system. Honestly, **disabling UEFI secure boot** is not at all a herculean task and same can be said for dual booting Linux with Windows 8 UEFI.
While it is fairly straight forward to access BIOS settings, you press F10 or F12 at boot time, its not the same case with UEFI. To access UEFI settings, youll have to go from within Windows. Lets see how to access UEFI settings to disable secure boot in Windows 8.
#### Step 1: Go to PC settings ####
Open the settings charms in Windows by pressing Windows+I keys. At the bottom, youll see the option of Change PC settings. Click on it.

#### Step 2: Go to Advanced startup ####
There will be a slight difference in PC settings for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. Depending upon which one you are using, you can follow the respective procedure described below:
Windows 8: In Windows 8, you need to go to General PC settings and select **Advanced startup** and then click on **Restart now:**

After you have clicked Restart now button, you will be presented with some options to choose from in the next screen. Select **Troubleshoot** here:

By this time you must have been booted in to UEFI utility. You can change various settings here but all we want to do right now is to disable secure boot option to allow dual booting of Ubuntu or any other Linux
Move to Boot tab, there youll find **Secure Boot** option which is set to enabled. Use the arrow key to go to Secure Boot option and then press **enter** to select it. **Use + or to change its value**. Confirm it when prompted. Press **F10 to save the changes** and exit the UEFI settings.
