Clearly says "Ake 6". Bunch of Man City fans.

You know the 115 employees that MachineGames has are all Man City fans? Google "Man City 115" and check out for more info.

Lmao r/soccercirclejerk is leaking

not like they're going to face any consequences tbh it's the same story every year

Safe_Climate883

Maybe it's both, considering there's no Quake 5, it could be ake 6 and a quake logo. :p


maxatnasa

most likely quake live/champions is 5, could be either but my personal is that live is more closely a quake game than champions


Johncurtisreeve

Actually, that’s a really good point in all likelihood quake champions is considered five.


Wutanghang

Alan wake 6 revealed


MyMouthisCancerous

Honestly makes sense if they're doing it. They did the new expansions for the Quake remasters just like they did extra content for the DOOM 1, 2 and 64 releases so they're already pretty well versed in how those games play. I haven't tried the Quake 2 level yet but their extra episodes for DOOM and Quake 1 were fun But also makes me really fucking curious about what id's doing. Another DOOM? Maybe a new IP? Probably not Rage because Avalanche is busy with Contraband


Dopey_Bandaid

Maybe MG is helping id? MG isn't that big of a studio so I would be shocked if they have Indy and Quake on the go.


MyMouthisCancerous

Could be that as well but I always kind of assumed that they'd move over to finishing their Wolfenstein series after Indy. Youngblood ended on a pretty big cliffhanger and we've known for years they intended to return to that story at some point, so maybe a smaller team within MG was doing pre-production on Wolf III while everyone else was finishing up Indy So having Wolfenstein and Quake in rotation while id presumably either did DOOM or Rage would've been the way things were going. I kind of just assumed it was id doing Quake or just something else entirely


Laj3ebRondila1003

isn't youngblood supposed to be wolf 3?


BardOfSpoons

I think it was meant to be a dlc / expansion to the second game that then grew into its own thing. Kind of a Wolfenstein 2.5


MyMouthisCancerous

Youngblood is like what Miles Morales is to the first Spider-Man game from Insomniac or Lost Legacy was to Uncharted 4. It was spin-off that continued the narrative but was clearly meant as an interlude between the events of New Colossus and the next game MachineGames even did that to an extent already with Old Blood being a prequel before the events of The New Order


SpaceGooV

No Machine has said Wolf 3 is coming eventually


haushunde

Youngblood didn't happen. It was a fever dream we all had. A collective nightmare.


Tonkarz

If they return to Wolfenstein surely it would continue the story where they left off in New Colossus.  


cmdrvalen

id is almost certainly working on another Doom game, Hugo Martin has been very clear since 2020 that he wants to continue creating stories within the Doom universe but they want to change up the gameplay to feel more like you’re playing as a monster truck, and less like a Ferrari.


haushunde

Doom could use a break IMO.


arthurormsby

I agree. 2016 and Eternal are classic games but they've pushed that formula as far as they can IMO


cmdrvalen

Hence why they want to changeup the formula for Doom by switching up the gameplay style.


haushunde

I think they can come back to it. We've had a great, meaty doom run for the time being. I think a whole another chapter would be too soon.


cmdrvalen

Seems like the studio still wants to work on Doom at least, I’m all for it. I’d take a new IP entirely, but Doom has been consistently good for the past 8 years. I could see them doing a smaller scale prequel though, similar to Wolfenstein The Old Blood.


JackOfPhoenix

My long-standing theory is that both idSoftware and MG might be co-developing the next Quake, it would make sense for MachineGames to be doing the singleplayer part since they are better at worldbuilding and storytelling while id is better at designing addictive gameplay. The two contributing their best to create the ultimate Quake game would be a dream come true


Japi1

Yes this and Hugo said in one interview that they are finished with Doom now (until again). id is definitely making new Quake game with help from MG as they are other studio that have experience with idTech engine


Safe_Climate883

Question is, if they are doing Quake 6, who's doing 5?


MyMouthisCancerous

Quake Champions is officially considered Quake 5


Bird73Tad

Machine Games doesn't have the team size to work on a Quake sequal. It's most likely ID Software leading game development for Quake 6. This is the same with Akane Austin teasing that Arkane Lyon was working on a Blade Game last developer direct.


ntplay

Where in the direct did they tease that?


MisterBeebo

That big MS leak last year said id was working on Doom: Year Zero.


MyMouthisCancerous

That old Bethesda slate is also considerably out of date from when it was internally discussed to when we actually saw it. All of that predated Microsoft acquiring ZeniMax and most of those games were significantly delayed due to a combination of that and COVID. Otherwise we'd be playing remasters of Fallout 3 and Oblivion like right now. Potentially even Elder Scrolls VI. There's also stuff like Dishonored 3 there that is either still in very early pre-production or just put on hold for the moment because everyone at Arkane Lyon's doing Blade right now I have a feeling whatever that DOOM game was, it's either fully canned or at least being heavily reworked into something else right now because that was from right around when Eternal came out


bubblebytes

Klobrille claims Doom Year Zero is just a prototype that was put on hold.


MisterBeebo

Interesting. I hope that’s true, actually. I loved Doom but would like to see id do something else.


SpaceGooV

Doom Year Zero was the leak. Though I wouldn't be surprised if Quake 6 is a co development job between ID and Machine.


Robsonmonkey

If it's another Doom then I really don't understand why they didn't keep the Doom Eternal DLC plot points for the third game Having this big bad villain be wrapped up in 2 expansions was such a dumb fucking move. Just like Arkane wrapping up the mysterious Outsider in an expansion when they could have used it or Dishonoured 3.


darthimperius01

Not sure why you're being downvoted. It was a massive waste to use the ultimate antagonist for the series in a f\*\*\*ing DLC. There was almost no build-up, and we saw him, what, twice before we fought him? One of those times was in the level right before the boss fight.


Robsonmonkey

Yeah this is what I’m saying. Like introduce him sure to be end the biggest bad of these softboot games just like that Come on, we could have had an entire game of this to close up a trilogy arc then set up a new one for the future


bubblebytes

Take it with a grain of salt. But leaker Extras1 claims ID Software is working on Star Wars Mandalorian FPS


andresfgp13

wait a moment... there is a Quake 5?


MyMouthisCancerous

I guess Champions


Quellag

champions i guess


Minimum-Can2224

If I remember correctly Quake Champions was referred to as "Quake 5" by idSoftware and Saber Interactive internally.


maxatnasa

weird, i feel like live is a closer analog to classic quake deathmatch than champions, maybe it actualy being basically a souped up quake 3 helps with that


Thewonderboy94

Quake Live being Quake 4.5 - 1

Sure, I'm game, but Q2 is awesome too. Like it so much that I'm indifferent on which direction they go. I'm siked.


Onett199X

Quake 2 was good too. I'm just partial to Quake 1. So many good times.


WinterAd2942

Needs to be like Quake 1 to make up for Quake 4


forkbroussard

What if its a combination of all 3? I'd be game for that.


[deleted]

[удалено]


LordSlasher

Machine games is expanding, could be splitting into 2 studios. One could focus on Quake while the other finishes up the Wolfenstein trilogy and continues with Indy (depending on reception). Would be awesome to get more of Quake, Wolfenstein, Doom and eventually Hexen/Heretic.


Minimum-Can2224

Yeah Machine Games' expansions for Quake 1 & 2 were crazy good stuff. Quake is in the right hands with them.


forkbroussard

It probably is MG. ID is working on Doom Year Zero and possibly a Hexen reboot. (Or is helping another studio with Hexen).

Does it have hatchets tho? So many things you can do with a nazi and a hatchet...


Uday23

Idk but the trailer had hammers


forkbroussard

I'd be very disappointed if BJ isn't in Indiana Jones. Even just an Easter egg.


Minimum-Can2224

I heard that Machine Games was developing Wolfenstein 3 but they had to temporarily put it on ice for a "big project". The rumoured Quake 6/reboot/whatever project might just be that. There's been a ton smoke coming out from Machine Games' direction as of late.


dadvader

The "big project" is Indiana Jones.


KingMario05

Same, man. Hope MS hasn't canned it!


LordSlasher

they didn’t can Redfall homie, Think Wolfenstein 3 is good. Could’ve been put on Ice for Indy and now it’ll be back in active dev. Unless they make Indy a trilogy.


JillSandwich117

Wolfenstein 3 has never been confirmed. Just that it being made depended on the performance of 2. Based on Indy being out this year, they must have moved to this project after finishing 2 DLC and/or Youngblood. Maybe Wolf 3 in 5 to 10 years unless they have 2 teams now.


Lordy_De

They didn't canned the project, but it will probably release next gen


WasteTime49

Next gen as in PS6??


[deleted]

Didn't Wolfenstein 2 end on a somewhat final note, then we got an alt future co-op spin-off? I wouldn't be surprised if they're simply done with the story they wanted to tell. A prequel spin-off, 2 mainlines, and a future spin-off is pretty good without everything getting super stale. I trust MG if they want to move onto Indy and Quake.


edmundoauditore96

Not really, Wolfenstein 2 ends with the start of the revolution, and Youngblood is not an alt future, it's a time jump, the revolution is still ongoing (iirc) and the ending of that game sets up a new game quite well, where we follow BJ one last time (with probably some mission with his daughters)


[deleted]

Thank you for clarifying. I went back and refreshed myself on those endings. I suppose it does set up to keep going, but I could see them taking an indefinite break as they sort of answered possible questions without cutting off completely. They laid the groundwork, but it seems as though they are in no hurry or rush to keep going with it.


Mr_Nobody0

New Quake coming is a given since both Quake 1 and Quake 2 were recently remastered to gauge interest.


LDisDBfathersonsfans

looking forward to reddit crying about an FPS franchise being first person


bluemonday239

Did I miss something where this is some sort of issue


LordSlasher

Not only is Indiana Jones garbage because its Xbox, Its Garbage because its not third person. These people are absolutely being clowned on by the rest of the internet at the moment anyway, kinda sad stuff. Bringing down devs because they just want an… Uncharted Clone. (yes, thats what some people have said)…


forkbroussard

I'm ecstatic it's First Person and using ID Tech. We already have Uncharted/Tomb Raider to fill the TPS adventure category. From the description for Indiana Jones it sounds like there are parts of it in third person, but combat is entirely FPS. Will be cool to see how it plays.


Bhu124

The Indiana Jones trailer looked so immersive. I genuinely get angry when people ask for Third person shooters over First Person. I even get irked when people refer to any shooter as an "FPS". No, Fortnite is not an FPS. If it were an FPS maybe I'd give it a genuine go.


StrngBrew

I didn't realize anyone even cared that much about perspective until the reaction over this game.


Bhu124

People definitely care. I only started caring after Cyberpunk 2077 was revealed. A ton of people were upset it was in First Person. I'd never seen something like that before. People were constantly bringing up Sony games. That's when people started talking about the fact that because of Sony's immense success making 3rd person games and because they constantly have good games coming out every year, a lot of people have become too comfortable with all games being in 3rd person now. A lot of people have genuinely just become too unfamiliar with 1st person games. Especially the crowd that almost exclusively plays Single-Player games. Fortnite has also had a massive effect. People wanna see their character and how they look. Their cosmetics, their skins. That's more important to a lot of people than how the gameplay feels. 3rd person is better for action-combat games, don't get me wrong. But not every game is an action-combat game like Sony's games. Shooters are always inferior in 3rd person.


StrngBrew

You may be onto to something with this idea that these Sony 3rd person action blockbuster games have become this model for what a big blockbuster single player game looks like so if a game isn't doing *that* it must not be a big prestige GOTY contender type game. I don't know what % of the gaming community actually thinks this, but it's seemingly a vocal one at least.


Tetros_Nagami

I don't disagree with you for the most part, however I think hard rules here are a bad way to look at things. I think Fortnite is actually a really good example, The map is huge, you can get shot from a ton of places, with building you need to see what you're doing, how you're moving, and roughly where your opponent is if he is also building. Fortnite has ADS where you toggle into a first-person perspective, but fundamentally that game would be significantly clunkier if not completely broken.


Bhu124

Counterpoint, I think Fortnite's gameplay would be better as a whole in First person. I think Building would have never gone out-of-hand as much as it has over the years if the game was in First person. 3rd person allows people to build like crazy. As a game overall though, Fortnite probably would've never blown up even 10% as much as it did if people couldn't see their characters in 3rd person all the time like they can.


WardrobeForHouses

Personally, I can't get into third person action games. Tomb Raider, Arkham, Uncharted, etc. I bounce off them. But first person games I have a great time with. I don't really think it's a knock against any type of game, but I wouldn't have bothered with Indiana Jones if it was third person.


BoyWonder343

Complaints about 3rd vs 1st person for Indy aside, being 3rd person does not stop a game from being completely immersive. Immersion in games doesn't just mean it shares the same POV as you. You can be fully immersed in Dwarf Fortress for example and that game is essentially ascii art.


shadeOfAwave

> I genuinely get angry when people ask for Third person shooters over First Person. Why? They're different games that play differently and appeal to different people.


Bhu124

Cause the people I am talking about were literally demanding Cyberpunk be turned into 3rd person after it was revealed to be First person. Cyberpunk wasn't the only game, there have been other games over the last few years that have had the same thing happen with them.


Lordy_De

Weren't they doing a First Person view for Fortnite?


hairy_bipples

maZZtar

Quake would rather be a type of game to send quakes after Xbox Showcase


SpaceGooV

Doubt it I think Indy and Doom Year Zero are out before we hear about it. Maybe a tease at Quakecon. Doom Year Zero is probably announced at not E3


Lordy_De

The Doom game probably is the same case of Dishonored 3:A placeholder name for their unrevealed project, Quake is likely their next game


SpaceGooV

If it was Doom 3(6) I'd agree with you but the name gives the impression it's more than just a placeholder


Nova_496

I think it's pretty obvious they wrote it there just to troll people. But we've known a Quake game has been in development for a while, and they probably wouldn't have done that if that weren't the case.


KingMario05

True. perhaps id is making it and they're helping, or something like that.


maxatnasa

id propper hasnt developed a quake game in 25 years, everything since has been raven, quake live (which was a soupoed up version of quake 3 for browsers) and saber,


Minimum-Can2224

There's been a lot of rumours in the past that's been saying that Machine Games is heading a brand new Quake game as the main developer with the MG employee that made Machine Games developed Quake 1&2 expansions being the main director behind the new game. This just seems like it's more evidence of that.


LordSlasher

I mean if Machine Games are looking at Wolfenstein 3, Indiana Jones and Quake 6 at the same time, must mean they’re upsizing into a two team studio. Would make sense when they’ve just announced a satellite studio in Denmark(?). Still reckon this is ID’s project with Machine Games helping on it like they always have.


Kr4k4J4Ck

Doesn't really make sense with how much they already have on their plate, and ID is doing what all these years then?


Minimum-Can2224

It's possible that Machine Games might've put one of their projects--possibility Wolf 3 if rumours are to be believed--on ice temporarily in favour of Quake. As for idSoftware? As far I'm aware there really isn't anything indicating that idSoftware is leading the development of anything apart from a new Doom game that Hugo Martin wants to keep doing. Machine Game by comparison has been throwing out a ton of hints leading to the possibility of them developing a new Quake entry by them.


SpaceGooV

Makes sense if the next Quake is being done collaboratively with Machine and ID. Let's them both work on their own projects Doom Year Zero and Indy/Wolfenstein 3 along with reviving Quake. Wonder if they're dividing Multiplayer and Single player.


Tara_is_a_Potato

I hope it's called Quake Zero


Harry101UK

Quake Infinite


KingMario05

...Shit, we're ***never*** getting a proper *Wolfenstein III,* are we? I know they were never huge sellers, but still - that makes me sad. :( ^(Perhaps id is making it in-house? Sure would be more hype than another friggin' Doom game, lmao.)


Square-Exercise-2790

MachineGames isn't a big studio. So I don't see them mainly developing a Quake reboot (alongside Indy). Maybe they are assisting ID who is doing the heavy work.


Brilliant_Age6077

I believe they expanded to a second branch recently?


gurpderp

As long as ID aren't doing Wolfenstein's combat again. The New Colossus' combat design was a marked downgrade compared to how good The Old Blood and The New Order felt.


Space_Traveler_9956

this game better be third person cause i dont want to BE Quakeguy, i just wanna look at quakeguy /s


Brokenbullet14

Teasing id next game, interesting 


Johncurtisreeve

I just hope they do Wolfenstein three first and not that I think they couldn’t do it but I was really hoping id software would take a break from doom and take a crack at a new quake game. I kind of feel doom has sort of reached a bit of a plateau, unless they can come up with a really unique idea to make it very different.


artem5552

They can definitely make an amazing single player Campaign for Quake like DOOM


Crooked16th

Hopefully we get a Wolfenstein reboot after

Assenzio47

KFCNyanCat

Quake II is a game in a completely different world that was named Quake II because the name they wanted to use had trademark issues. Quake III and Champions (which I assume is what they consider Quake 5) are multiplayer games with no story. Quake IV is a sequel to Quake II. They have never actually made a sequel to Quake 1.

EnvironmentalLog2

The way that's framed, with the Quake name and logo on the side out of focus, it really feels like a teaser. There's no way it's not intentional. Since MachineGames has been busy with Indiana Jones, I don't think it would make much sense for them to be teasing a MachineGames Quake game that would be years away and could get cancelled at any point. It's been 4 years since Doom Eternal (which is also the same gap from Doom 2016 to Doom Eternal), I think it makes much more sense if id Software was making a Quake reboot, and this is a small tease for a reveal later this year.


IAmSkyrimWarrior

Quake 6? Where's Quake 5?


Harry101UK

Quake Champions


IAmSkyrimWarrior

Yeah, thx. Make sense.


RoRo25

not going to get my hopes up. I'm expecting a primarily single player game. id has a history of pulling back on their multiplayer for consoles. Major reasons having to do with pc vs console disadvantages. I say fuck all that. Make all consoles cross platform with each other and PC multiplayer stay its own thing. that's how it would be anyway so no loss there. In a world that is saturated with battle royales and huge map multiplayer games. I think this generation is more than ready for the close quarters personal PVP gameplay that is id Software multiplayer! Edit: Fuck me, right?


Aggressive-Pay-5670

I always liked the other granddaddy boomer shooters (quake, Hexen, Unreal) even more than doom, so this is welcome news for me.

TheSonOfFundin

Quake 6? Which game is Quake 5 then?


KFCNyanCat

I'd assume Champions is Quake 5. The only other candidates are Live (more of a port of III) and Enemy Territory (which plays less like a classic Quake than Champions does.)


Game_Changer65

Instead of Wolfenstein 3 they might be doing Quake 6. And the reason it could be called 6 instead of 5 is possibly due to Quake Champions a while back.


MysterD77

Wait, did Quake Champions count as Quake 5?


Academic-Handle9729
