TheDOOMandDOOM 2collection has released a brand-new update, bundling the two classic games with a campaign by original designer John Romero. ThisDOOMcampaign was originally released in 2023, but is now easily accessible for players everywhere.
DOOMand its successor are commonly considered to be among themost influential video games of all time, setting the bar for first-person shooters in years to come. It even inspired a subgenre of its own, with plenty of “DOOMclones” looking to piggyback off its success during the 1990s. The series continues to release popular titles to this day, and last year, the originalDOOMand its sequel were combined into one package for players to pick up and experience both classic games.
