''As simple as it is dangerous, the Minigun features a rotating barrel assembly and an unmatchet rate of fire. If the primary fire isn't fast enough for you, try the much faster (and less accurate)secondary fire. Good aim is the key to mastering the Minigun. With a little practice you'll be reducing your opponents to helpless bullet catchers at every opportunity. The ammo supply is displayed at the top of the weapon.''

The Minigun is a weapon in Unreal, Unreal Tournament, UT2003, and UT2004, as well as UC. Since UC2, the functions of the Minigun seem to have been taken over by the Stinger.

With one notable exception, the weapon has remained more or less unchanged: Primary fire shoots out a fast stream of inaccurate bullets that do light damage, while secondary fire shoots out more accurate and damaging bullets, but the rate of fire is severely dropped. The exception is in Unreal and Unreal Tournament, where these firing modes were swapped.
