Rumor: Quake Will Return With a Female Protagonist?
Quake may be another FPS series, which after years will live to see a full-fledged installment. If new rumor is to be believed, it will be single- and multiplayer game with a female in the main role.

It was reported the other day that the devs of Wolfenstein series.
Nick allegedly received the information (via Idle Sloth) through a message on Discord, although he did not state how reliable the source was. The title is to be developed with both single player and multiplayer modes in mind. The main character of the new Quake is going to be a female.
This treatment would not be as shocking as in the case of Doom, the story layer of Quake was very modest up until subsequent installments, ever gained the iconic status of Doom Slayer or B.J. Blazkowicz.
Of course, these are nothing more than unconfirmed rumors and it's better not to take them too seriously. As we all know, even reliable insiders sometimes slip up, as evidenced by Nick Baker, whose information happened to be, ittedly rarely, wrong. Anyway he doesn't give it as a confirmed information, so it's better to approach it with caution. At least until this year's edition of Quake Champions.
