Heavy Metal Arena Deathmatch
QC:Doom Edition is a community-built Doom II mod running on the Zandronum engine. It replaces Doom's cast with Quake Champions-style characters — each with distinct movement, weapons and abilities — and pits them in arena deathmatch. No Quake Champions account or Bethesda launcher required.
Grab the Zandronum client, download the QCDE pk3, and connect. The Meathook Super Shotgun, distinct champion abilities, and Doom's weapon arsenal all carry over intact.
QCDE is a Doom II mod — it does not use Quake Champions. The official package bundles the Q-Zandronum engine and a free IWAD, so no Doom II purchase is needed: Windows download · Linux download.
Unpack the archive anywhere and run the included Q-Zandronum. Our server runs QCDE v3.1 with the bundled freedoom2.wad — match that and you are set. Project home: qcde.net.
Launch Q-Zandronum with QCDE loaded, open the in-game server browser (or the included Doomseeker), and connect to qcdoom.sonofasam.com:10666
