Bethesda and id Software dropped a massive DOOM bombshell this morning in the form of the Campaign Trailer and official release date for their revival of long running FPS series DOOM.
Get a closer look at the adrenaline-pumping single player campaign in the latest trailer for DOOM arriving worldwide on Xbox One, Playstation 4, and PC on Friday May 13th. As the now iconic DOOM marine, players wake to learn that "the Union Aerospace Corporation's facility on Mars has been decimated and overrun by hordes of demons. Fight Like Hell." Relentless demons, impossibly destructive guns, and fast, fluid movement provide the foundation for intense, first-person combat – whether you’re obliterating demon hordes through the depths of Hell in the single-player campaign, or competing against your friends in numerous multiplayer modes. Expand your gameplay experience using DOOM SnapMap game editor to easily create, play, and share your content with the world.
A collectors edition of DOOM will also be available which will include an exclusive, fully realized 12' tall collectors statue of the games most iconic demon; The Revenant. The statue was modeled from actual in game 3D files and will stand on an LED lit base with an "internal, slow spinning turbine from the UAC facility on Mars." The collectors edition will also include the copy of the game in a "battle-worthy" metal case. The Collectors edition will retail for $119.99 and will be available at most retailers.
The trailer can be viewed below and WOW, does it look like DOOM is back with a vengeance. We cannot wait to get our hands on this game again.
