Quake Live Open Beta Now Available
 

Id Software today has launched its browser-based Quake Live video game as an open beta for anyone who wants to test the rehashed version of Quake III Arena.

Quake Live is available for free and will be supported by in-game advertising, id Software said prior to the game's open beta launch today. The game is built upon the id Tech 3 engine and will have an ultimate focus more on gameplay speed instead of graphics.

Quake III has been an extremely popular video game over the years, but surprisingly has not lost its popularity as newer, more advanced game engines became available. The game still has a solid following of old-school gamers, and id hopes that both these players and casual gamers will flock to a free game that doesn't require a video game purchase.
