Vare sig Id Software (som utvecklat) eller Bethesda (som gett ut det) har väl prioriterat Quake Champions direkt men trots detta och trots att spelet inte blivit den enorma succé som Tim Willits & Co hade hoppats på, fortsätter studion att pumpa ut kvalitativa uppdateringar. Oktober-patchen är den mustigaste hittills och den innehåller följande:
Slipgate:
"This is a game mode where each team alternates defence and attack in 4 against 4, in order to take possession of a gigantic wormhole. Defenders must attempt to open the portal to allow an ancient deity to come into our world, while attackers must do everything to prevent it. The peculiarity of this mode, beyond the fact that each hero appears with all his weapons, complete health and complete armor: it has only one life."
A new champion:
"With fairly standard starting statistics (Health: 125, Armor: 50, Speed: 320) Athena is a fast heroine who bases her strength on her agility. She is also equipped with a grapple to jump faster towards her enemies. In flight, Athena can stop shooting and start swinging instead, allowing her to perform various manoeuvres. She also has a passive ability that allows her to take more height, using ramps as a launch pad."
The Slipgate Festival:
"Each game played in the Slipgate mode will give you access to a wide range of rewards. As soon as it's launched, all participating players will receive the "Tentacles" paint that is adaptable to all the weapons in the game. In addition, it will also be possible to unlock the Lore Skin for Ranger, Scalebearer and Athena if you have already unlocked the champion."
