Here are some QuakeCon 2021 highlights:

Global Stream  – QuakeCon will officially kickoff Thursday, August 19 at 2:00pm ET.  The multi-day event will include special influencer streams, Bethesda’s own Community teams from across the world, developer appearances, and game updates – all streaming in support of charitable causes. The QuakeCon Staff will also be producing a slate of exclusive content for the community. Stay tuned for more info, including the full schedule, in the coming weeks.

Official QuakeCon Twitch Team  – Playing and sharing games with friends in the BYOC is the core of QuakeCon, and this year the global QuakeCon community will once again unite and connect through the official QuakeCon Twitch Team. The Team will celebrate QuakeCon, play and share games, and help raise money for the QuakeCon-supported charities. Some players will be featured on the QuakeCon Twitch Team page.

Our virtual QuakeCon attendees will be able to donate to organizations directly from the official QuakeCon Twitch stream, including Asian Americans Advancing Justice (AAJC), NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, The Trevor Project, and UNICEF.

So in a nutshell, QuakeCon will kick off with a global livestream beginning this August 19, with activities also happening at Twitch and Discord which will gather all fans and gamers in the community together to celebrate and find out updates about their favorite games.
