About

The player takes the role of a protagonist known as Ranger who was sent into a portal in order to stop an enemy code-named "Quake". The government had been experimenting with teleportation technology and developed a working prototype called a "Slipgate"; the mysterious Quake compromised the Slipgate by connecting it with its own teleportation system, using it to send death squads to the "Human" dimension in order to test the martial capabilities of Humanity.

AI-powered picks based on gameplay, mechanics & feel

Doom Eternal

Like Quake, Doom Eternal is a masterclass in aggressive, fast-paced first-person combat, pushing players to constantly move, manage resources, and exploit enemy weaknesses in a ballet of blood and bullets.

92% Match

Ultrakill

Ultrakill takes Quake's speed and gore, injects a style meter, and dials the aggression up to eleven, rewarding players for chaining together creative kills and maintaining momentum in its frantic, blood-soaked arenas.

89% Match

Dusk

Dusk is a love letter to the golden age of '90s shooters, perfectly blending Quake's heavy metal aesthetic, frantic pace, and secret-filled level design with its own brand of retro-inspired horror.
