• Ascended Fanfic: Many official mutators and some gametypes are inspired from several user-made content, thanks to the ease of modding Unreal Tournament. For example:
  • The Zoom Instagib mutator, inspired by the eponymous mutator for UT.
  • The Bombing Run gametype, inspired by the Fragball gametype mod.
  • The translocator's new built-in camera option, inspired by the Translocam mod.
• Canon Discontinuity: For Epic themselves and many people, 2003 never existed, and said game is a beta version of Unreal Tournament 2004 instead. It gets weird storyline-wise, since the events of that game (most notably Gorge being the current Champion and Malcolm breaking his team with Brock and Lauren) still technically happened.
• Cut Song: Three unused menu themes as well as "Level 2"^note The menu theme for Unreal Championship.
• Dummied Out: There's a playable vehicle in a map, the Bulldog, but it can only be accessed via console.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes: Has never been re-released, due to 2004 making it redundant.
• Promoted Fanboy: Shares a page with the rest of Epic Games.
• Refitted for Sequel: The whole franchise has its own page.
• What Could Have Been: The whole franchise has its own page.
• Working Title: 2003 started its development as Unreal Tournament 2. It was changed in order to emphasize the sport side of the franchise.
