Midway announced today that its first of several "Unreal" projects in tandem with Epic Studios, Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict, has been listed on Microsoft’s "Top 25 Xbox Live Games Worldwide" list which calculates the most popular titles currently being played online by the number of gamers playing.

Released two weeks ago to the public via a pre-sell program that provides consumers with a free copy of the demo when they pre-order a copy of Unreal Championship 2, the demo is currently ranked as #20 in the United States and #25 worldwide. Amongst strong competition, the Unreal Championship 2 demo is also the only demo to crack the Top 25.

Unreal Championship 2 boasts both a rich single player and online experience for the Xbox video game system and is slated to ship to retailers worldwide on April 18, 2005.
