King of the Hill is a gametype in Unreal and Unreal Mission Pack: Return to Na Pali.

Overview

The game starts as in Deathmatch, but the first player that scored the first blood is crowned King of the Hill. He gets a red glow around him, exactly how the Energy Amplifier looks like, and all of his weapons do double damage. All other players try to kill the King of the Hill and take the crown.

Scoring

• The first kill is an ordinary 1 frag.
• If a player kills the King of the Hill, he gets awarded by 5 frags.
• The King of the Hill gets an ordinary frag for killing an enemy, but as he has double damage, he can kill enemies twice as fast.
• Other players can kill each other for ordinary frags.

Trivia

• The gamemode is the early version of the Unreal Tournament 2003 and Unreal Tournament 2004 gametype Mutant, together with CloakMatch from RtNP.
• In the beta versions of the game, the King of the Hill would gain 200 health and be completely pitch black (bspeciallit) for some reason. The illusion would break however if someone placed bspeciallit light in the map, though it could be used on purpose for certain colored effects like in some special location. This could imply they were toying with the idea of a location based KOTH, such as the one from ChaosUT version 1.1 or the standalone mod version, also included on certain UT bonus CD which had the gametype still for regular Unreal.
