DESCRIPTION
Developed by the award-winning id Software, Quake® is the ground-breaking, original dark fantasy first-person shooter that inspires today’s retro-style FPS games. Now, experience the authentic, updated, and visually enhanced version of the original.

Experience the Original Game, Enhanced
Enjoy the original, authentic version of Quake, now with HD* and widescreen resolution support, enhanced models, dynamic and colored lighting, anti-aliasing, depth of field, the original, atmospheric soundtrack and theme song by Trent Reznor, and more. There’s never been a better time to play Quake.

Play the Dark Fantasy Campaign
You are Ranger, a warrior armed with a powerful arsenal of weapons. Fight corrupted knights, deformed ogres and an army of twisted creatures across four dark dimensions of infested military bases, ancient medieval castles, lava-filled dungeons and gothic cathedrals in search of the four magic runes. Only after you have collected the runes will you hold the power to defeat the ancient evil that threatens all of humanity.

Get the Original & New Expansion Packs
Quake also comes with both original expansion packs: “The Scourge of Armagon” and “Dissolution of Eternity,” as well as two expansions developed by the award-winning team at MachineGames: “Dimension of the Past,” and the all-new “Dimension of the Machine.”

Discover the All-New “Dimension of the Machine” Expansion
In the deepest depths of the labyrinth lies the core of lava and steel known only as The Machine. Crusade across time and space against the forces of evil to bring together the lost runes, power the dormant machine, and open the portal hiding the greatest threat to all known worlds—destroy it…before it destroys us all.

Horde Mode
Experience the all-new Horde Mode and add-ons for Quake, free to all players. Grab your guns and drop into Horde Mode - play solo, with friends online, or in local multiplayer split-screen. Unlock powerful weapons and power-ups and battle your way through endless waves of monsters.

Enjoy Online & Local Multiplayer and CO-OP
Fight through the dark fantasy base campaign and expansions in 4-player online or local split-screen co-op, and compete in pure, retro-style combat with support for 8-player (online) or 4-player (local split-screen) matches. Featuring dedicated server support for online matchmaking and peer-to-peer support for custom matches.

Download Additional, Free Mods & Missions
Expand your experience with free, curated, fan-made and official mods and missions such as Quake 64, which is available to download and play now. More fan-made and official mods and missions coming soon.

Play Together with Crossplay
Play the campaign and all expansion packs cooperatively or go toe-to-toe in multiplayer matches with your friends regardless of platform! Crossplay is supported among PC (controller-enabled), Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch.

Motion Aiming Ready
Improve your gunplay with an option that allows you to aim using gyro controls. The option can be used in conjunction with the control stick for the perfect blend of immersion and accuracy.

    Thanks for the heads up OP!

    I just recently played this again in VR and it was an absolute blast.

    • Trishool on 04/08/2023 - 08:00

      On what platform did you play it in VR?

        Quest 2, there's plenty of tutorials to get it up and running.

        I've played old-school favourites like Doom 1 - 3, Heretic, Half Life, Return to Castle Wolfenstein. It's just like you remember them, but 200% better.

        • Trishool on 04/08/2023 - 08:57

          Nice, I envy you. I've almost done something close enough with a VR headset, Quake on my phone and a bluetooth controller. But the controls were a bit clunky and there was no head tracking. One day. Im a massive Quake fan (loved Q1 and Q2), and also really enjoyed Heretic as well.

    "and the ability to play on the go."

    What an outstanding achievement.

    Make it small in size and it could also be portable.

    What percentage of the switch's games require you to sit at home?

    The expansion packs on the original game would be well worth it.

  • congo on 04/08/2023 - 08:30

    This should be regaular price since it is an old game.

    • splicer on 09/08/2023 - 09:31

      $5 is too high? What is the regular price for an old game?

  • Twisty on 04/08/2023 - 09:31

    Looks cool, just watched a video of it.

    Anyone know if there is a way to make the game slower? Just that I get motion sickness from fast moving fps games so adjusting the sensitivity would help. The turning left right is fast on the video I watched

    • sween64 on 04/08/2023 - 10:23

      If you use Gyro controls you can tune the sensitivity.

      • Twisty on 04/08/2023 - 10:49

        So that’s the only way? So if I use normal I can’t?

        • sween64 on 04/08/2023 - 10:56

          I don't know, sorry.

        • sween64 on 04/08/2023 - 11:24

          Looks like you can lots of settings.

          There’s settings for Aim X (1 to 20, default is 6), Aim Y (1 to 20, default is 3), Aim Accel (0 to 50, default is 15), Accel Exponent (1.0 to 4.0, default is 2.0), Aim Smoothing.

          There’s also settings got deadzones, Aim Assist and Motion Sensor.

      By default “always run” is turned on in options. It’s silly. Turn it off and the games much better

      • Twisty on 05/08/2023 - 15:28

        Thanks for your answer and time

    As an aside, John Romero just released his auto biography. Part way into it now and it’s pretty good so far.

    Listening to it in audible, which John narrates himself.

    Really good fun in split screen co-op. Also rumour has it that they're set to unveil Quake II remastered at Quakecon soon, but we'll see.
