Quake III Revolution brings the arena shooter classic to PS2. Speed intact, decent bot AI, the pad struggling to keep up. More of a historical curiosity than a modern must-play.

Quake III - Revolution (PS2) price, value & rarity
Is Quake III - Revolution still worth playing in 2026?
A first person shooter from Bullfrog, Quake III - Revolution adapts to the console id Software's famous snappy multiplayer shooter, where you clash in labyrinthine arenas at very high speed, picking up weapons and bonuses in duels of raw intensity. The blistering snappiness of the action, the purity of arena combat and the mastery of weapons appeal to fans of old school competitive shooting. The end of the online servers and a dated production bound the experience today. For a fan of arena shooting or a nostalgic of snappy multiplayer, the title keeps a preserved snappiness and intensity, in a dated edition.
