The game adds several features not available in vanilla Quakes, such as the ability to switch to a third-person view (which may be a bit buggy) and several selectable player skins.

The Sword of Ares was made of free content but was distributed as shareware. It appears that the registered version (as a separate PAK file) was eventually made available by the author as a free download too, as it can be found on PlanetQuake mirrors alongside the shareware release. It is an unofficial commercial total conversion, whether it was licensed by id Software is unclear.

The game retailed at $9.99 on their official website. Read more
