Prospective rocket jumpers and Railgunners can sign up on the official site. Closed beta is scheduled to begin “in a few weeks,” according to a Bethesda press release.
Bethesda will also be unveiling more about the game’s Champions and Arenas in the coming weeks. Tomorrow, players will get an in-depth look at Nyx, with Scalebearer to follow a week later.
Players can also get a jump on details on Quake Champions’ first two arenas, Blood Covenant and Ruins of Sarnath (the arena with a giant eyeball in the middle featured in the new trailer).
Bethesda announced Quake Champions at E3 2016. The game embraces class-based gameplay that has become the new trend in online multiplayer shooters such as Overwatch.
Quake Champions will be playable at PAX East in Boston this weekend.
