Udvikleren id Software har afsløret via en pressemeddelelse, at Quake Champions går ud af beta-stadiet i næste uge, og udkommet i Early Access d. 22 august via Steam og Bethesda.net. Derudover tilføjer udvikleren også tonsvis af nyt indhold til spillet.
"With a fast, skill-based game like Quake Champions, nothing is more important than continual testing and refining, based on player feedback, to ensure the game is balanced, optimised, and fun for all levels of players, from pro to new. The Early Access version of Quake Champions is, obviously, a work-in-progress, but represents a solid and robust version of the game, with four modes, 11 Champions, a variety of maps, and a thriving community of fans. Early Access will allow us to work closely with players to improve the game and add additional features before the official launch of Quake Champions in the coming months." fortæller Tim Willits fra id Software.
For at være med skal du købe Champions Pack, som lukker op for alle nuværende og fremtidige karakterer, såvel som bonusser. Dette koster 200 kroner, som heldigvis er en del billigere end den endelige pris, som kommer til at blive 300 kroner.
Der er desuden to nye baner (Church of Azathoth og Tempest Shrine), nye Rune Challenges, træningsbaner og et skydegalleri.
