McQuaid died at his home on November 18, 2019, aged 50. No public information about his cause of death has been released.
On March 6, 2013, McQuaid announced that he had returned to working on EverQuest.
On September 9, 2013, McQuaid released a statement saying that he had left SOE, but would continue to work with them. This news, coupled with a string of hints dropped throughout Twitter and various message board posts, led the community to believe that McQuaid intended to work on a true spiritual successor to EverQuest and Vanguard independently. On January 13, 2014 the game was announced as Visionary Realms' Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen alongside a Kickstarter campaign, with McQuaid served as Chief Creative Officer.
On July 6, 2012, Sony Online Entertainment announced the re-hiring of McQuaid to continue work on Vanguard including its Free-to-Play transition.
The game was released to the public in January 2007, five years after Sigil was founded. Brad McQuaid admitted that the game was not ready in January but was released early due to "financial resources".Full quote

While EverQuest was being developed, Origin Systems launched Ultima Online in 1997 which became the top MMORPG. EverQuest became a huge hit and within months of its March 1999 launch it topped the subscription numbers held by Ultima Online. PC Gamer called McQuaid one of the "Next Game Gods" in its November 2000 issue, believing that he would eventually become one of the industry's most influential game developers.
