LOGISTICS
GAMING
When will my order ship?
What if I change my mind?
That's not a problem. Your pre-orders can be refunded at any point, just reach out to support@playquell.com. Keep in mind that if you cancel your pre-order you likely won't be able to get your hands on an Impact until 2024.
Should I expect delays?
The Impact and Quell have been under development for the past 2 years. Delays have occurred — the incredible Quell community have stuck by our side.
People who order now are skipping the growing pains, it's always possible a delay could happen due to macroeconomic variables, but we are very confident with our current timeline.
Will the price change?
Yes. We're currently offering a discount vs. the retail RRP and have not adjusted the pre-order price to account for rising production costs.
Shardfall is included with your Impact Starter Kit — post launch Shardfall will be sold for $50.
What's included in the launch kit?
Everything you could need to get fit while gaming on the impact.
- A customizable belt in your preferred size (Small / Medium / Large / XL)
- 1 set of resistance bands (Customized based on your fitness level)
- The Impact
How effective of a work out is it?
Our user testers burned more calories playing Quell than running, cycling or going to the gym. Quell also gives you a full-body workout, including shoulders, arms, chest, core, back, and legs. You can adjust the resistance bands to focus more on building strength or endurance. Whatever your fitness goals, Quell will give you an incredible, immersive workout.
What fighting styles are there?
Quell’s combat is built on the foundations of boxing, but incorporates influences from other fighting styles as well as impactful non-combat fitness moves, like thrusting your arms forward to fire an ice blast. We’ll continue to update the game with new moves in response to player feedback.
Is it safe for beginners?
We consulted physiotherapists and boxers to build safety into every aspect of the design. For example, the resistance bands are anchored below the wrist to avoid common boxing injuries.
As with any vigorous physical activity, we recommend contacting your healthcare provider to discuss any medical issues.
How tough is each session?
Quell’s difficulty is fully customised to you, whether you’re a fitness fanatic or just getting started on your journey. We use your biometrics to set gameplay challenges and recommend the perfect resistance. As you get stronger, the game gets harder, keeping the level just right for you.
Will there be more game titles?
100% — Quell is thrilled about our launch game Shardfall, but by the time Quell is available in the retail market, work on additional titles will be underway by both Quell and external studios.
