Quake 4, Untitled id Game Revealed [Aug 10, 2001, 4:05 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
GameSpy Daily
is the first out of the gate to report that at id Software's press conference
this afternoon at QuakeCon, they have announced two new projects. Quake 4, which
is being developed by Raven Software, will utilize id's latest technology, and will bring the series back to the Strogg-universe featured in Quake II. Also
announced was an untitled, completely new franchise in development at Nerve
Software (who are also working on Return to Castle Wolfenstein's multiplayer),
which is said to be "a multiplayer co-op title using id technology."
Activision will be publishing the untitled project, Quake 4, and DOOM for the
Game Boy Advance. A publisher (or title, for that matter) for the new DOOM title
has not yet been announced. The press conference is still going on, and we'll
report more as it comes out. Update: Another report is up at ShackES, which also describes the new DOOM footage shown during John Carmack's talk, saying that it looks to be, "very dark, slow, and storyline-oriented." Update II: The GameSpy Daily report originally mentioned "Matrix-style effects," but this turned out to be some sort of miscommunication on their end, and this portion of the article has been corrected.

A collaborative effort was also announced between id software and the new software company of Brandon James, Nerve Software. That as-of-yet-unnamed game was
described as "multiplayer, cooperative-focused." The Nerve game is also going to use the Doom 3-engine.

The project being developed by Nerve is based on an original design by id Software. The game is still in the early stages of development with more details to be announced later this year. Nerve Software was co-founded by ex-id Software employee Brandon James.
