It's been a long time since we've shown you anything new. Well, the wait is now over! While still very much a work in progress, you can see where much of our time has been spent these last years. Hopefully we will be able to provide the kind of gaming experience unsurpassed by any other game on the market.

Current target platforms include dual-core minimum system, 1 GB of RAM, and a x1900 or 7900 class video card, crossfire/SLI recommended. We're still working out the kinks on the PS3 platform but we're pleased with the current possibilities of the Cell architecture.

Without further ado, here's a screenshot of a current alpha build:

We truly aim to be by far the best game ever!

Haha, nice work!

looks good, but will that "rq3" be the same again? i mean, the style of gaming, i dont want the same game again, would be nonsense. on which platform it should run? q3, q4, standalone? after all, great! i am looking forward to play the first demo :)

isnt it ironic... :D

Whuh? In relation to your opinion? In most cases, if not all, it's not a matter of what you want, but rather what we feel most comfortable doing.

Nice one monk =)

OMG! What insane lightning, what detail! What cool gun! The hand is so life like... oh.. wait, this was posted april 1st?

undestandable when you have in mind that RQ3 was created long long time ago when the first day of the Calendar was corresponding to April first So the good old Blakmonk had the idea to create a new rule : every April first would start with some very good (fake) news...

Actually: http://www.rq3.com/?page=article& amp;id=17 http://www.rq3.com/?page=article& amp;id=21 (12 days later) ...you can never be too sure with us, now can ya! Hmmm... we definitely do our best work in the summer months, though. 3.1 (Apr 26th, 2003) 3.0 (Apr 12th, 2003) 2.25 (Sep 10th, 2002) 2.2 (Aug 30th, 2002) 2.1 (July 20th, 2002) 2.0 (Jun 14th, 2002) 1.1 (Jan 13th, 2002) 1.0 (Nov 16th, 2001)

Oh yeah I forgot the comments section doesn't like HTML or carriage returns. Ok! Basically, we announced 3.0 on April 1st 2003 and it was released April 12th 2003. So we are TRICKY.

april fool :(

Actually this is bad joke! coz' all rq3players've saw so far = NOTHING. Waiting the day u aren't too scared to show us something real.

Well, I touched on the subject in the forums, but the basic gist of it is that we want to be ready to show something worthwhile with a good plan for release. We've had releases in the past where we haven't built up enough good PR beforehand to get a good playerbase going. Ergo, we need to save up some material to show piecemeal to various news sites to start building interest. Part of that is also rebuilding our backlot and vault and guild sites as a first step. i.e. so we will have some type of support structure in place before we try to lure new players in. Yes, the existing players get a bit shorted in the process, but we felt it's better to give it one last big push to help get more interest in the game and this is in our (my?) opinion probably the best route for it. I do apologize that the information for the existing fans is not forthcoming, but we want to try to do this release "right", if it can be done that way.

OKIES ! WHO IS GOING TO MAKE ME WAIT LONGER ???

Emm, I did not find some more news about new Reation in internet too Russia waits new Reaction with all un-lame players

Correct Amundo!!!!! I'm almost done waiting :E

I have an idea. Can't you make some mail-list we can sign up for so we don't have to get all sad when we log in here once or twice a week and don't get to see any news? That way we'll all get the news faster when it does come out.
