The victorious gladiator advances to a more challenging array of arenas, until, at last, he or she faces Xaero, Lord of the Final Arena. But only the warrior who has fragged the most foes will be lauded as the winner. When the dust, blood, and gibs settle, all warriors will have earned the right to battle again, providing further entertainment for the Vadrigar. Those who fall are instantly restored to life and immediately thrust back into the battle, perhaps a little wiser for their misfortunes. Don't worry overly much about getting 'fragged.' The Vadrigar won't be cheated of their favorite sport by a little thing like death. As such, they have stocked the arena with the greatest warriors of all time - and you have just joined their ranks.Īs a gladiator in the Arena Eternal, you must not only survive, but also win each and every battle against ever more powerful opponents. Virtually nothing is known of these beings except that they savor the carnage and clamor of battle.

Instead, it simulates the multiplayer experience with computer controlled players known as bots (see Bots below). Note: Unlike its predecessors, Q3A does not have a plot-based Single Player campaign. Notable features of Quake III include the minimalist design, lacking rarely used items and features, the extensive customization of player settings such as field of view, texture detail and enemy model, and advanced movement features such as strafe-jumping that give more speed with greater skill in contrast to the digital, all or nothing design of many computer games. Its Single Player segment is almost identical to multiplayer fights, although other players are replaced by bots. It differs from the other games in the Quake series (not counting Quake Live) in that it sacrifices the Single Player mode to focus on multiplayer. Quake III Arena is a multiplayer-focused first-person shooter released on December 2, 1999.

Abandoning every ounce of common sense and any trace of doubt, you lunge onto a stage of harrowing landscapes and veiled abysses. Welcome to the Arena, where high-ranking warriors are transformed into spineless mush.
