In the Arena, victory belongs to the warrior who has the speed and skills to rise to the top. As deadly aliens, daunting cyborgs and hardened soldiers from other worlds come to stake their claim, however, one question will be answered: Do you have what it takes to be a Champion?

Champions
It wouldn’t be Quake Champions without Champions! Each warrior that steps into the Arena features their own set of unique stats and traits alongside a powerful ability that can turn the tide in their favor!
Every Champion is unique and offers their own style of play – find your favorite today!
NYX
Watch your back! This assassin can use her Ghost Walk ability to slip between dimensions and get the drop on unsuspecting foes.
SCALEBEARER
A warlord with a chip on his shoulder that you don’t want ramming into yours. Once he starts his Bull Rush, those unfortunate enough to get caught in his path usually wind up as smears.
ANARKI
A cybernetics junkie, Anarki always looks to push his body through augmentation. His Health Injection ability can bring him back from the brink while also giving Anarki the rush of his life!
SLASH
Skating her way into the Dreamlands, Slash doesn’t slow down for anyone! Her Plasma Trail ability leaves behind a deadly path of energy that can explode on command to frag any tailgaters.
CLUTCH
Once a simple mining automaton, Clutch now sets asides drills in favor of a Rocket Launcher. With its Barrier up, Clutch can raise an impenetrable force field in front of itself to nullify enemy attacks and then finish the job with its mining laser!
GALENA
Offered up to the Celebrants of Volkerh to be a paladin for an unholy cosmic entity when she was just a child, Galena has little empathy for anyone – least of all her foes! Galena can tag key spots of the battlefield with her Unholy Totem ability, healing allies in its radius while damaging enemies that veer too close!
RANGER
A lone Marine trapped in the Dreamlands for over two decades, Ranger fights to retain what little memory he has of his old life. Ranger can teleport short distances throwing his Dire Orb – a special ability that also deals damage to any foes that get in his way.
VISOR
Visor is a result of GRU military experiments that dabbled in cybernetics, genetic modification and perhaps even some things beyond the capabilities of “normal” science. With his grafted mask, Visor’s Piercing Sight ability can see enemies through walls – guaranteeing they have nowhere to hide.
SORLAG
The fearsome alien huntress Sorlag is as cold-blooded figuratively as she is literally. In battle, Sorlag can use her Acid Spit ability to leave caustic puddles of acid that poison any enemies who make contact.
BJ BLAZKOWICZ
Wolfenstein’s own freedom-fighting badass has entered the Arena! Thankfully, BJ still retains his running-and-gunning expertise, including his Dual Wield ability that doubles his firepower in a flash!
DOOM SLAYER
He has been to Hell and back again. He rips and tears foes to pieces barehanded with his Berserk ability. He is the bane of Demonkind. He is the DOOM Slayer.
KEEL
Lance Corporal Ben Keel, seemingly killed on duty during an attack on a mining colony, was revived with a new robotic body that transformed the Marine into a walking arsenal. Keel’s Grenade Swarm ability brings the boom with a volley of lobbed explosives!
STROGG & PEEKER
An alien fusion of metal and flesh, this vicious being has infiltrated the Dreamlands alongside his AI drone companion. During battle, Strogg can take control of Peeker to deal damage from the sky or with a devastating self-destructive blast, making for a deadly duo!
Weapons
No matter how fearsome or skilled a Champion may be, going into the Arena bare-handed is sure to end poorly. With three Starting weapons to help you survive, you’ll need to master each map to locate the weapon pickups before your opponents and prepare to do some serious damage!
Starting Weapons:
MACHINEGUN
NAILGUN
SHOTGUN
Pickups:
HEAVY MACHINEGUN – Improving upon the Machinegun, this fast-firing beauty is reliable in medium-to-long range encounters.
SUPER NAILGUN – Boasting the high damage rate over time, the Super Nailgun is balanced by its slow-moving projectiles, requiring you to predict your enemy’s movements to get the most out this weapon.
SUPER SHOTGUN – As devastating to up-close enemies as it is satisfying to use, the Super Shotgun is the ultimate finisher.
ROCKET LAUNCHER – Capable of tons of damage, knocking back enemies, and performing the iconic Rocket Jump maneuver, the Rocket Launcher is the bread and butter of Quake Champions.
LIGHTNING GUN – With a steady hand and constant pressure on your foe, the Lightning Gun can evaporate a Champion’s health and armor in a mere moment.
RAILGUN – Sacrificing fire rate for raw damage output, the Railgun can do massive damage in just one shot. Aim carefully, however, as missing will leave you exposed for a long period of time.
TRIBOLT – The Tribolt fires timed explosives in a three-part volley, making it great for turning enemies into smoldering chunks at close and medium range.
Customization
Strafe jumps, direct rocket hits and multikills are one way to express yourself but choosing how you look as you enter the Arena can be just as important! In Quake Champions, players can mix-and-match different cosmetic items to make a Champion that suits their own personal taste.
The quickest way to build up your collection of cosmetics are through Backpacks, Chests and Reliquaries, which are earned through gameplay or are available to purchase in the Quake Champions Store with either Favor or the premium Platinum currency.
Depending on the tier of container, you have a better chance of opening rare vanity items, skins and shaders to recolor both your Champions and arsenal of weapons. It’s your Quake – add your own aesthetic to it!
Arenas
In each Mode, Champions duke it out across a wide range of otherwordly, meticulously detailed Arenas, exercising control over their opponents for precious weapons, health and armor pickups. Memorize and master each Arena and you’ll be sure to make your mark!
