QUAKE III Team Arena
A 2000 team-based shooter that swapped Quake III's arena dueling for objective modes, but struggled to justify its existence then and hasn't aged well now.
GamerScout Verdict
A forgettable 2000 spin-off that even nostalgic arena fans should skip; the original Quake III is still the better choice.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About QUAKE III Team Arena
I'd approach Quake III Team Arena with realistic expectations: this is a spin-off that felt redundant on launch day and plays like a mod someone bolted onto the original Quake III Arena. The core idea of team objective gameplay (capture the flag, territorial control) makes sense on paper, but the execution felt half-baked even in 2000. Metacritic pegged it at 69/100, and that score tells you everything - competent enough to ship, not compelling enough to survive. If you're a hardcore retro arena shooter collector, you might squeeze some nostalgia value out of it as a historical artifact of early 2000s multiplayer design. Everyone else should stick with the original Quake III or jump forward to games that actually nailed team-based competitive shooting. The skill ceiling exists, but the playerbase has been dust for two decades.
