Enjoy the Official Launch Trailer for DOOM: The Dark Ages
Stand And Fight as the super weapon of gods and kings, shred enemies with devastating favorites like the Super Shotgun while also wielding a variety of new bone-chewing weapons, including the versatile Shield Saw. Players will stand and fight on the demon-infested battlefields in the vicious, grounded combat the original DOOM is famous for. Take flight atop the new fierce Mecha Dragon, stand tall in a massive Atlan mech, and beat demons to a pulp with the newly enhanced glory kill system. Only the Slayer has the power to wield these devastating tools of mayhem.
Coming May 15, 2025. Pre-order on Xbox Series X|S, PC or PlayStation 5. https://t.co/DCP5jMAfk4

Brand New "Legacy of Rust" Episode
Created in collaboration by individuals from id Software, Nightdive Studios, and MachineGames, Legacy of Rust is the newest episode for DOOM, and the first official episode since DOOM II to feature new demons and weapons.
"Vassago's Rest", the ancient inscriptions called it. With the meaning of the name lost to time, it wasn't long before the interlopers began calling the land by another: "New Eden". Just like the Garden of old, mankind's exile from this newly settled realm was swift and brutal.
This remote region of Hell, overflowing in (un-)natural resources as it were, was almost entirely devoid of demonic presence. The Union Aerospace Corporation, never one to shy away from hubris and excess, learned the hard way that even the demons feared something greater, something deeper. When the Ones Beneath awoke, the UAC's crown jewel was swallowed in a cascade of blood and fire.
Three hours -- all it took to reduce New Eden to a sea of molten glass.
Three minutes -- all it took before the UAC's top brass played their ace.
Three seconds -- all it took for you to weigh the risks before accepting the job.
Your orders are clear: reclaim the lost base and preserve the UAC's Legacy.
Or die trying.
id Vault
Dive into the id Vault and explore concept art from DOOM + DOOM II’s development, early versions of monsters, weapons, items, props, FX, HUD + Menus and textures left on the cutting room floor.
Enhanced Cooperative Gameplay
New rules have been added to improve cooperative mode. If all players die, you will lose, and the level will restart. Respawn teammates by clearing all enemies in the area or finding a safe place to hide. Teammates will spawn near you, letting you get back into the fight quickly
Split-Screen Multiplayer
DOOM + DOOM II includes 4-player split-screen multiplayer on all platforms, with 8 player split-screen available on Xbox Series X|S and PC. Fight against your friends in Deathmatch or with your friends in Cooperative mode, available in seven campaigns
Online Multiplayer
Frag with friends and strangers alike across 43 different Deathmatch levels or play any of the episodes in co-op. Play alone or play online with local split screen players. LAN play is also supported.
CrossPlay Multiplayer
Play with friends no matter which platform they prefer. Crossplay is available on all platforms, so you can play DOOM + DOOM II with everyone. Join your friends quickly using our room code system for finding lobbies
New Deathmatch Map Pack
A new Deathmatch map pack featuring 25 maps was added thanks to community mappers: Luis “DX-Chain” Armacanqui, Luca Ciriaco, Ralph "Ralphis" Vickers, Matthew "RottKing" Cibulas, Colton "Arrowhead" Murchison, Andrew "Saar" Bouvé & Joshua "tokyopunchout" Boyle. This new pack compliments the existing 18, bringing the total Deathmatch levels to 43

About the Included Games
DOOM (1993) - Original Version The demons came and the marines died...except one. You are the last defense against Hell. Prepare for the most intense battle you’ve ever faced. Experience the complete, original version of the game released in 1993, now with Episode IV: Thy Flesh Consumed
DOOM II – Original Version Hell has invaded Earth, and to save it, you must battle mightier demons with even more powerful weapons. This beloved sequel to the groundbreaking DOOM (1993) introduced players to the brutal Super Shotgun, the infamous Icon of Sin boss, and more intense FPS action
TNT: Evilution The UAC relocated their experiments to one of the moons of Jupiter. A spaceship, mistaken for a supply vessel, was granted access. But when it got close to the base, demons poured out. All your comrades were slaughtered or zombified. This time it's not about survival. It's about revenge
The Plutonia Experiment Every effort has been made by the nation's top scientists to close the seven interdimensional Gates of Hell, but one portal remains open. Alone, you must infiltrate the ravaged base, defeat the demon Gatekeeper, and seal the last Hell portal before the undead take over the world
Master Levels for DOOM II This expansion includes twenty additional levels, all with the same hell-spawned horrors and action of the base game. Each level was created by independent designers and supervised by id Software
Sigil Created by id Software co-founder, John Romero, and released as an episode-sized mod consisting of 18 new maps, Sigil fits in between the timelines of DOOM (1993) and DOOM II. Baphomet, the gatekeeper of Hell, “glitched the final teleporter with his hidden sigil, whose eldritch power brings you to even darker shores of Hell. You fight through this stygian pocket of evil to confront the ultimate harbingers of Satan, then finally return to become Earth’s savior.”
Legacy of Rust Created in collaboration with individuals from id Software, Nightdive Studios, and MachineGames, Legacy of Rust is the newest episode for DOOM, and the first official episode since DOOM II to feature new demons and weapons. This 16-map Episode is broken up into two 8-map acts: The Vulcan Abyss and Counterfeit Eden

FAQs
Where can I find these same release notes in more languages? Check out these same Release Notes available in additional languages on the Slayers Club website here.
I already own DOOM or DOOM II. How do I access the new release? Previous owners of DOOM or DOOM II on Steam will automatically receive the new version with a free update. It may already be updated by the time you read this!
How do I access the original versions of the game? Steam users can use the Beta Participation property option to download and launch the original versions, or the last version that we launched in 2019 labeled "previous-re-release"
What are the supported resolutions and framerates on Steam? PC: Maximum supported by video card/display
What input devices are supported? Controller, keyboard, and mouse are supported on all platforms, including consoles. Split screen is available with mixed mouse/keyboard and controller
Do I need an always online connection to play the game? DOOM + DOOM II only requires an online connection to play online multiplayer game modes. The single player campaigns and multiplayer via split screen, LAN, or ad-hoc multiplayer on Switch can be played while offline
Is the Steam controller supported? DOOM + DOOM II does not support the Steam controller
How do I create a mod?
DoomTools, which offers a wide array of utilities that will be useful or critical towards creating a Doom wad file (requires Java)
...and become familiar with online DOOM community wikis, such as DoomWiki.org, and Discords, such as UDBs and SLADE’s.
How do I upload a mod? Mod uploading is only available on PC. To begin the process, select a game from the main menu, like DOOM II for example. Then select "MODS" from the menu, and select "UPLOAD" and follow the instructions!
On the Minimap, why do the Kill, Item, and Secrets totals not increment for the Host when completed by another player? For the host player, Kills, Items, and Secrets don't count on the Minimap if another player adds them. This is intended. The minimap shows only your total kills, items, and secrets, not the total for the entire party

Spanning across multiple decades, id Software’s library of work is as vast as it is full of amazing games.
However, this means a number of the id’s offerings have been released or reiterated in ways that can make our digital storefronts a touch…confusing. Rather than write out the differences between Final DOOM, Ultimate DOOM and just DOOM, we’re consolidating our Steam library of titles! For those id Software experts that do know all the variations of our games released on Steam, bear with us as we simplify how our games appear so that newcomers have an easier time.
HERE’S THE PLAN:
Starting August 10, we will begin rolling out changes to our Steam Store listings for select id Software games. In short, we are consolidating each game under one major title and/or changing the title for a simpler shopping experience.
Below will detail our current plans for Steam consolidation and how it affects your current Steam library if you’ve purchased these games already. And don’t worry, even if we are delisting a title you currently own, you’ll still have the game in your library to download and play like always.
Without further ado, the lowdown:
DOOM (1993) We will be changing the name of Ultimate DOOM in the Steam Store to DOOM (1993). No other major changes are being made at this time.
DOOM II DOOM II will include Final DOOM and Master Levels as one install package. Each can be launched separately as follows:
DOOM II
DOOM II (Enhanced)
Master Levels for DOOM II
Final DOOM
DOOM 3 DOOM 3 will be merged into a package containing the original DOOM 3 plus the Resurrection of Evil expansion and DOOM 3: BFG Edition. The package allows each version to be installed separately as follows:
DOOM 3
DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil (Requires DOOM 3 to be installed)
DOOM 3: BFG Edition
NOTE: Players that already own DOOM 3 or DOOM 3: BFG Edition on Steam will be upgraded to the DOOM 3 consolidated package with all three releases for free!
Quake II Quake II and its mission packs, The Reckoning and Ground Zero, will be merged into one install package with multiple launch options:
Quake II
The Reckoning
Ground Zero
Quake III Arena Quake III Arena and Quake III Team Arena will be merged into one package with separate installs:
Quake III Arena
Quake III Team Arena
STEAM BUNDLES
In addition to updating our id Software titles on Steam, we’re also revamping our bundles (as well as introducing some new ones!) Note that if you already own certain titles listed in each bundle, you can complete it to get the remaining games added to your library at a discounted price. See below for details:
DOOM Classic Bundle Replaces the DOOM Classic Complete Bundle on Steam, with this bundle now including DOOM 3 and DOOM 64.
Includes DOOM (1993), DOOM II, DOOM 3 and DOOM 64
DOOM Franchise Bundle Explore more DOOM with this bundle, including both the classic DOOM games as well as DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal.

Quake Collection Bundle Dive into Quake, all in one convenient bundle!
Package will include Quake, Quake II, Quake III Arena, Quake Live, Quake 4
DELISTED TITLES
The following will no longer appear in Steam Store searches, but will remain in your installed library listings:

Quake III Arena Demo
Quake III Team Arena Demo
Quake III Team Arena (This will be included with Quake III Arena)
Final DOOM (This will install with DOOM II)
Master Levels for DOOM II (This will install with DOOM II)

A small update has been released for our modern DOOM and DOOM II ports today. The only change is a fix for FPS dependent mouse sensitivity. Your sensitivity will feel different for the same slider value compared to before, however it will now feel more consistent, especially at higher framerates when vertical sync is disabled.

Note for existing users
The unmodified, original DOS version running under DOSBox is still available! When launching the game, select "Launch DOS version" and you will have access to the previous version.
Added Steam Support
Anyone who already owns either The Ultimate DOOM or DOOM II: Hell On Earth on Steam will automatically receive the new re-releases in their libraries. The original DOS versions are still available as a separate launch option from within Steam, and the original DOS IWAD files are in their original location on disk. Please note: if you have modified the files in the Steam install folder directly, some files may be overwritten. You should not modify files in the Steam folder directly, as this may cause issues. Anyone who purchases Steam copies of DOOM or DOOM II: Hell On Earth in the future; it will default to the re-releases but can access the original DOS versions as a separate launch option from within Steam.
Added widescreen rendering support
For the first time in an official port, the original DOOM renderer has been modified to natively render 16:9 without any letterboxing. The FOV has been increased to reveal more image on the side instead of chopping off the top and bottom. All new 16:9 versions of the titlescreen, intermission, and ending screens have been added. Many of our Add-Ons have also had widescreen support added, so download the latest version from the Add-Ons listing to check it out!
DeHackEd support
The engine now can load DeHackEd patches, a popular tool for the original release that modified the game in order to support more advanced behavior. Add-Ons can now use new weapons, change enemy behavior, and more!
Deathmatch 3.0 in split-screen multiplayer
Split screen deathmatch has been changed to what is commonly known in the community as "Deathmatch 3.0." Weapons will stay in the world after being picked up in order to account for the extreme lethality of DOOM's weapons, and the weakness of the starting pistol, while all items and ammo respawn on a 30 second timer. Invulnerability and Invisibility will never respawn after being picked up for the first time.
Added optional crosshair
A crosshair, which can be disabled in Gameplay Options, will also change colors when targeting an enemy. This means less guessing if firing a rocket is going to aim at the enemy above you, or fire directly into your face, bringing about an untimely death. Enabling the crosshair may also help reduce motion sickness by giving you a fixed point to focus on.
Added Gyro Aim
Gyro Aim, enabled by default when a DualShock 4 controller is plugged in, allows you to look left and right by either turning the controller, or rolling the controller left or right. This allows for an additional amount of precision by enabling fine corrections to turning in order to track moving enemies, while still using the right analog stick for large turning movements. Gyro Aim can be set to either use the controller's yaw, or pitch, or disabled entirely, along with a separate sensitivity slider.
Added FPS Limiter
You can set the FPS limiter inside Video Options to 30, 60, 120, 144, 165, 240, and unlimited FPS.
Added millisecond accurate timer
A millisecond accurate timer has been added to the minimap, and to the end of level intermission, for anyone looking to speedrun levels.
Keyboard entry of cheat codes
iddqd, idkfa, idclip, and all of their friends can now be entered from the keyboard, in addition to the Cheats menu, as in the original 1993 release.
Added secret area notification
A message and notification is now displayed when you enter into a secret area for the first time.
Added Ultra-Violence+ Skill Level
Ultra-Violence+ is a twist on our existing Ultra-Violence skill level. Deathmatch/Co-op only weapons will spawn in, and enemies are fast like in Nightmare mode. In DOOM II, this means you get the BFG and Rocket Launcher right from the start, but in Final DOOM: Plutonia you'll have a Spider Mastermind staring you down as soon as you spawn in on the first level. It cuts both ways.
Nightmare behavior has been fully restored to the original 1993 release by making enemies move twice as fast.
In honor of double speed enemies returning, the warning when selecting Nightmare difficulty has been restored.
Resolved an issue where lighting in split screen was not accurate compared to single player.
Improved behavior of additional lighting option to increase light levels more accurately across walls and floors.
PC/Switch: Reduced input latency by disabling rendering extra frames in advance.
Reduced delay in starting certain MIDI music in Add-On levels.
Resolved an issue from the original 1993 release where the Super Shotgun blast will linger for an extra frame.
Resolved an issue from the original 1993 release where the Former Human would not light up when firing.
Resolved a rendering issue from the original 1993 release where certain textures wouldn't tile vertically, commonly known as the "Tutti-Frutti Effect
Restored original attract loop to the original 1993 release. The original title screen and credits screen are now visible between demo playback.
Restored cut message from the original 1993 release when picking up a medkit, while having with less than 25 health.
Restored cut "ouch face" from the original 1993 release for when a lot of damage is taken in a single hit.
Intermission screen is now shown after boss levels, instead of cutting immediately to the ending screens in order to see level completion stats and time. Par times have been added to E1M8, E2M8, and E3M8.
Random SFX pitch is now disabled for chainsaw sounds to allow for better looping. Random pitch variation has been reduced for other sounds.
Pickup sounds and player voices will no longer interrupt weapon firing sounds.
PS4/XB1/PC: VSync option in Video Settings to minimize input latency, at the cost of potential screen tearing.
Add-Ons will now use their intended custom graphics during intermission and level loading screens.
Latest Add-Ons appear on the top of the Downloaded list.
