The official QuakeCon website has been updated, announcing the dates for this year's event: August 11-14. The event will again be at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center in Grapevine, Texas. Registration for QuakeCon 2005 will start April 15 at 8PM CST.

QuakeCon 2005 will be a four-day, 96-hour bash with non-stop gaming, around-the-clock contests, exhibits, entertainment, giveaways, parties and white-knuckle tournament action. With a dedicated area for more than 3,200 BYOC (Bring Your Own Computer) LAN gamers, and over 150,000 square feet of total convention space for tournaments, exhibits, conferences and entertainment, QuakeCon 2005 attendance is expected to top last year's record of nearly 6,000 attendees.
