It’s completely free - there aren’t any micro-transactions. 25 Quake Live Free, (Lets You) Die Hard On Steam Today Quake Live long and prosper Graham Smith 8 years ago 18 Old News: Strafe-Jumpings Near Death In Quake 3 Lawks, shes off again Alice OConnor 8 years ago 24 Quake For Noobs: Quake Live Adds Loadouts & Autohopping Shock horror outrage etc. Above: In-game advertising will bankroll Quake Live, but won’t warn your dumb ass about incoming fire
