QuakeCon 2020 Will Take Place After All - On the Web

Bethesda Softworks and id Software found a way to celebrate the 25th birthday of QuakeCon. As it turns out, this year the event will take place exclusively in digital form. The organizers, however, do not intend to „take it easy” and have prepared numerous attractions.

This year QuakeCon will be held exclusively online.

On the last day of March we informed that this year's edition of QuakeCon, i.e. the event dedicated to id Software games, has been canceled. The developers then convinced that they would try to find another way to celebrate the 25th birthday of the event.

As it turns out, the solution they have found will be an online event that will last from August 7 to 9. During QuakeCon at Home we can expect such attractions as live broadcasts, tournaments, charity fundraising and "some cool secrets". More information about the event will be available in the coming weeks.
