This paper is devoted to make a systematic study of real hypersurfaces of quaternionic projective space using focal set theory. We obtain three types of such real hypersurfaces. Two of them are known. Third type is new and in its study the first example of proper quaternion CR-submanifold appears. We study real hypersurfaces with constant principal curvatures and classify such hypersurfaces with at most two distinct principal curvatures. Finally we study the Ricci tensor of a real hypersurface of quaternionic projective space and classify pseudo-Einstein, almost-Einstein and Einstein real hypersurfaces.
