A new combined version of Doom and Doom 2 is now available on PC, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch. It brings a ton of new features and enhancements, including a brand-new episode made in collaboration with developers from id Software, Nightdive Studios, and MachineGames.
Originally released in 1993 and 1994 respectively, Doom and Doom 2 are legendary first-person shooter (FPS) games that established many of the genre conventions that we still see today. They have both been ported countless times in the past but, revealed as part of this year's ongoing Quakecon convention, this new edition is something of a definitive release.
Doom and Doom 2 now feature a new official episode with new demon enemies and fresh weapons too. It's titled “Legacy of Rust” and takes place in an overrun base in a remote region of hell. A new deathmatch map pack, including 25 multiplayer maps, has also been added.
It sounds like an incredible port all things considered, especially for the modest $9.99 / £7.99 asking price. This version, officially titled Doom + Doom 2, is also available for free for those who already own Doom or Doom 2 (or both) on any supported platform, which is an absolutely brilliant bonus.
