It takes a pretty special video game to remain relevant and active after a single decade, but Quake has long since blown past that milestone.
The legendary first-person shooter is coming up on its 30-year anniversary and is marking the occasion with the addition of brand new content.
Dawn of the Machine is a free update that's available today for Quake owners on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, Steam, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Microsoft PC Store, Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass.
Perhaps fittingly for this anniversary expansion, there's a time loop mechanic at play along with some new variants of the familiar Quake enemies and weapon arsenal.
As one of the titles that defined FPS gaming and more recently inspired the boomer shooter subgenre, it's pretty cool to see Quake still getting love from players and devs after a whopping three decades.
