More about Quake Champions
2 of the 532 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to October 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 42 percent of the 465 reviews written there were positive, against 74 percent overall, and those are 7 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (currency, cosmetic); the score docks it lightly for that.
