This time of year is usually one of peace and safe comfort for just about everyone. The same can’t be said for the land of Quake Live, where id Software has injected some Yuletide spirit into the browser-based frag-em-up’s usual industrial surroundings. For two weeks, players can enjoy a Christmas-themed remake of Team Arena map “Distant Screams,” now named “Silent Night.”

This update doesn’t add particularly festive weapons to the mix, but the fresh coat of winter wonderland paint is certainly welcome. Nothing tops off the Christmas spirit tank like a little rocket play beneath giant candy canes and a star-filled sky, after all.
