During the Bethesda E3 2016 press conference, Bethesda announced the return of a legendary multiplayer FPS Quake, with Quake Champions.

Quake Champions, is the first Quake title since Enemy Territory Quake, which was released in September 2007. Id Software who is developing Quake Champions seems aware of the history and the pressure associated with a Quake game. “20 years ago, Quake set new standards for multiplayer competition and pushed the boundaries for graphics and gameplay,” said Tim Willits, Studio Director, id Software. “It’s important to all of us at id Software that Quake Champions remains true to the Quake legacy, and delivers the speed and gameplay our long-time fans expect, while also pressing forward by introducing innovative gameplay opportunities with new Champions and abilities.”

Quake Champions is set to be designed and built for esports, integrating competitive features for professional and amateur levels of play. The game will also be supported at tournaments and in leagues around the globe, including QuakeCon.

Very little information was given regarding Quake Champions apart from a short teaser video, which you can see above, but Bethesda did state that id Software will be revealing more details about Quake Champions at this year’s QuakeCon, which runs from August 4-7.
