Enter the ruins of the temple of Sarnath. Untold epochs have passed since the slime-slick stairs were heaved upward from their inky depths, to be swabbed by the tears of tribute.

This week's reveal does not feature a champion, instead we're treated to a first official look at Ruins of Sarnath. Ruins of Sarnath is a completely new map to Quake series. The map's Aztec setting is also somewhat new to Quake series, as previous titles were mostly dominated by gothic and industrial themed maps.

The map features 2 light armors, 1 heavy armor, a mega health, quad damage and a pentagram (if screenshots are to be believed). For those unfamiliar with the pentagram powerup, it's a powerup last seen in the original Quake and during it's duration all the damage done to the holder is mitigated. We will have to wait until there's official information on pentagram, as it's yet unknown on how it will work in Quake Champions.
