Quake Live Server Hosting, Explained

What is Quake Live?

New to Quake Live?

What is Quake Live?

Quake Live is id Software's competitive arena shooter and the successor to Quake III Arena. It started as a browser game in 2010 and moved to Steam in 2014. Matches are about fast movement, aim and map control: strafe jumping, rocket jumping, and timing pickups like Mega Health, Red Armor and Quad Damage. It has over 100 arenas and more than a dozen modes, from Duel and Free-for-All to Clan Arena, Capture the Flag and Freeze Tag.

Fast and Skill-Based.

Movement and aim decide every fight, with the Railgun, Rocket Launcher and Lightning Gun.

Duel to Clan Arena.

Play 1v1 duels, round-based team modes, flag games or plain deathmatch.

Why rent a server?

What is Quake Live Server Hosting?

A dedicated server keeps your arena online around the clock, without a PC left on at home or ports to forward. That is what pickup groups, clans and friends need to play on their own rules. With us it deploys in minutes, with the name, slots, passwords, game mode and Workshop items in the panel, voting, warmup and access rules in the config editor, and full file access over SFTP and SSH.

Always Online.

Your server stays up when you log off, so your community can play any time.

Full Control.

Set your mode, map pool and passwords, add Workshop maps, and set your own voting rules.
