While id was happy to share news and trailers on three upcoming shooters at this year’s QuakeCon, there was one franchiseleft out in the cold. John Carmack confirmed to the disappointed fans in attendance thatQuake— the best game to play during anactual quake— does not currently have a sequel in development.
This doesn’t really strike me as too odd, seeing as id is already hard at work onRage,Wolfenstein, andDoom 4: The Doomaning. They probably just don’t want to spread their development resources out too thin.
If you absolutely must play somethingQuakerelated right now then there’s always last year’sEnemy Territory: Quake Warsor the upcoming free-to-playQuake Live, which is set to go into open beta mode sometime soon.
Does the lack of any newQuakeannouncements — at the convention named after the franchise, no less — bum you out?
