Shotguns are loaded, chainsaws are purring, and QuakeCon 2021 is just around the corner! Like last year, QuakeCon at Home will be brought to each viewer’s home! Fans can participate through live streams, tournaments, charity fundraising, and updates on existing and UPCOMING games!
The event will begin on Thursday, August 19th at 2 PM E.T. with a fun Welcome Message, which will lead into fan-focused pannels. Some of these panels will include looking at upcoming game events, new games, and the anniversary of Quake and Skyrim! There will also be a ton of other fun events as well!
There will be more panels on Friday, August 20th, including Deathloop, Alienware, The Elder Scrolls Online, and more! In addition, at 8 PM E.T., there will be an exclusive musical performance by the metal band Trivium because you can’t have a proper QuakeCon without good music!
Saturday, August 21st, will be the final day of QuakeCon at Home but will feature fun for everyone! There will be a full-on DOOM Eternal BattleMode Bonanza, a Fallout 76 Love It or Nuke It event, Quake World Championship Grand Finales, and more!
For Charity!
Throughout the weekend, fans will be able to help donate to charity organizations directly from official QuakeCon streams! These charities include Asian Americans Advancing Justice (AAJC), NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, The Trevor Project, and UNICEF USA!
In addition, from August 13th-23rd, fans can purchase new & exclusive “Pugcubus” and “Catloop” apparel! All profits from the sales will be split between QuakeCon‘s long-time Dallas animal adoption partner, Dallas Pets Alive, as well as FOUR PAWS, a global animal welfare organization. Yes, these shirts are absolutely adorable!
