Unreal
- Main Article: Unreal#Music
Unreal features music in the UMX file format, which is a package format with embedded MOD, S3M, or IT music.
Most music was composed by Alexander Brandon (aka Siren), and Michiel van den Bos (aka M.C.A.). A few tracks were composed by Dan Gardopée (aka Dan Grandpre and Basehead), and Andrew Sega (aka Necros).

Unreal 2
- Main Article: Unreal 2: The Awakening#Music
Unreal 2 features music in the Ogg Vorbis format, as well as in Microsoft's DirectMusic format. The latter allows music to dynamically change depending on what is happening in the game. XMP uses only Vorbis music. The music is mostly electronic.
Jack Wall (Tommy Tallarico Studios), Clint Bajakian (Tommy Tallarico Studios), Jeremy Soule (Artistry Entertainment), Crispin Hands (Artistry Entertainment), Brian Min (Weddington Productions), Chance Thomas, Richard Schneider and original Unreal composer Alexander Brandon are credited for working on the music in Unreal II.

Like Unreal, Unreal Tournament features music in the UMX file format. The music is mostly techno, although there are clear influences from the style seen in Unreal.
UT's music was primarily composed by the composers who worked on Unreal (Alexander Brandon and Michiel van den Bos).

Unreal Tournament 3
UT3 features both music in the Ogg Vorbis format as well as dynamic music of an unknown format. According to UT3's Audio Director Mike Larson, after the more orchestral music of UT2003 and UT2004 it became clear that "an overwhelming majority of users" preferred the original UT music. This, and the wish to make a clear distinction between the UT series and Gears of War lead to the decision to return to electronica. Some of the tracks are remixes of original UT tracks, or feature small samples from UT tracks. [1]
UT3's music was composed by Rom Di Prisco (electronic and remix tracks), Jesper Kyd (darker, more organic tracks used in Necris and Izanagi maps), and Kevin Riepl (mostly cut scene music).

Trivia
- Three official UT2003/2004 maps (CTF-Geothermal, DOM-ScorchedEarth, and ONS-Tricky) have typographical errors in their audio properties that cause them to not have associated music. This issue can be fixed by adding ogg files to your UT2003 or UT2004 Music directory that match the typos:
- KR-SniperTime.ogg (Enables music in Geothermal)
- KR-ChemicalBurn .ogg (Enables music in Scorched Earth, note the space after 'burn')
- KR-Action2v2.ogg.ogg (Enables music in Tricky, note the extra '.ogg')
- Unlike most types of UT2003/2004 files, the ogg files that ship with the game can be modified, replaced, or deleted with no ill effects. This can allow users to customize their soundtracks by replacing the default ogg files. Programs like [Foobar 2000] can be used to encode ogg files from other types of media, and Foobar even has the option to convert multiple songs into a single file, essentially allowing users to create playlists to replace individual songs.
