QuakeCon sees the congregation of thousands of gamers every year, revolving around the FPS genre, and specifically around the company that started the trend, id. Each year brings new announcements in 3D engines and games, and this year was no different. 2007 saw the announcement of a new title, RAGE, which showed off the company's new engine, titled id Tech5. Another project announced was a free, browser-driven version of Quake Arena, although no specific details were given.

RAGE is a slight departure from the normal Quake/Wolfenstein/Doom formula, with the addition of significant racing and "road warrior" type levels. The new 3D engine allows for large, but extremely detailed environments, using Megatextures. As the game is still in production, not much is being said, although early trailers show off advanced character rendering and animations, pushing the level of detail beyond what was seen in Doom 3.

The id Tech5 engine will be used on titles for both Xbox 360 and PS3, including RAGE, but will not appear on the Nintendo Wii, due to hardware limitations.

Quake Zero, still an unofficial title, is planned to be an iteration of Quake that can run from a website, and will be free for users. Much like simple flash games found around the web, Quake Zero will be advertiser supported, but will integrate within the website's framework. The goal is to use Quake Zero to drawing people to a site, and build a community. With a relatively small budget and developer group, id is hoping their free, online experiment will be fruitful.
