— The Soldier fondly remembering his origins

The Original is a promotional primary weapon for the Soldier. Styled after the weapon from Quake, it is a tan rocket launcher with a gray tubular exhaust port, bulky barrel and a gray handle.
This weapon functions like the Rocket Launcher, yet has additional cosmetic changes. As with the launcher in Quake, the Original's first person viewmodel is in the bottom-center of the screen and rockets are launched straight into the crosshair. The Soldier holds the weapon normally in third person view.
The Original was awarded in Genuine quality to players who purchased Quake 4 before August 8th, 2011 at 10AM PDT.

Update history

Bugs
- Like the Direct Hit, Liberty Launcher and Black Box, the Soldier does not load rockets for the Original when reloading.
- Spies disguised as a Soldier equipped with this weapon will appear to carry the standard Rocket Launcher.
Unused content

Trivia
- The draw sound for the weapon is both audible to the player and others nearby.
- The sounds played when firing and reloading are remastered sound effects from Quake.
- Quake 4 was not available for purchase in Germany, making this item unobtainable in Genuine quality for that region during release.
