About The Game
Fight Like Hell
Developed by id Software, the studio that pioneered the first-person shooter genre and created multiplayer Deathmatch, DOOM returns as a brutally fun and challenging modern-day shooter experience. 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. There is no taking cover or stopping to regenerate health as you beat back Hell’s raging demon hordes. Combine your arsenal of futuristic and iconic guns, upgrades, movement and an advanced melee system to knock-down, slash, stomp, crush, and blow apart demons in creative and violent ways.

One of my favorite games of 2016, now portable
So glad this is coming out this holiday season vs sometime next year.
Maybe the worst Version, but an outstanding game and its impressive what the Switch can do.
And its portable!
I didn't think I would have issues with the graphics, but the experience is really not that smooth. I think it is way too blurry and I keep losing focus.
The motion aim controls don't work as well as I hoped and even after a lot of practice I just stick to joysticks.
I am mostly disappointed by the poor audio quality, however. This is a game that takes its energy from the atmosphere and adrenaline. The audio is extremely compressed which makes it more annoying than anything else.
Great game, average port.
Panic button. What a team. How they have ported Doom to Switch is nothing short of remarkable. This is gaming on the go at its finest.
@ArtiomNLS yes, 12 player online. We've updated the page.
Brutal and amazing, take a look, only!!! 🔥🔥
