The original Quake has been given a Horde mode for the first time in its 25-year history.

The new mode, which has been developed by Wolfenstein developer MachineGames, has been added as a free update to the remastered version of Quake released in August.

Horde mode is for 1-4 players and can be played solo, with AI bots, or with friends.

As with Horde modes seen in other games, players will face off against progressively harder waves of enemies.



The new update also includes a free add-on called Honey, which provides a new series of stages in which players “delve deep into the darkness to conquer a deadly plague infecting the land”.

Bethesda released the remastered version of the original Quake for modern platforms in August, to coincide with the game’s 25th anniversary.

The shooter has been updated with up to 4K resolution and widescreen support on compatible platforms, enhanced models, dynamic lighting, anti-aliasing, depth of field and more.

Quake is available now on PC, Xbox One (including Game Pass), PS4 and Nintendo Switch, with backward compatibility on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
