Over-The-Top Bloody Demo for ‘Gori: Cuddly Carnage’ Available Now on PC, Consoles [Trailer]

With QuakeCon 2024 now underway, Bethesda and id Software have once again given fans a treat. Only this time, instead of a another remaster of a Quake game, we’re going old school with newly enhanced versions of the original Doom and Doom II. Best of all, if you already own these classics, you get the new enhanced versions for free!

Available now on Steam and the Epic Games Store, as well as the PlayStation Store, the Xbox Store and the Nintendo eShop, these new enhanced versions of Doom and Doom II are available as a bundle for $9.99. Much like the remasters of Quake and Quake II, these enhanced versions run on Nightdive Studios’ KEX Engine, and sport modern graphical goodies such as native 16:9 support, 60 frames per second gameplay at 1080p on all platforms, and up to 120fps in 4K on certain hardware.

There’s also some new content! Both games will be included in one package, along with a new Deathmatch pack that contains 25 maps (to accompany the existing 18), and six (?!) bonus episodes:

• TNT: Evilution
• The Plutonia Experiment
• Master Levels for Doom II
  
• No Rest for the Living
• John Romero’s Sigil
• Legacy of Rust

The last episode, Legacy of Rust, is an all-new episode that’s been been created by members of id Software, Nightdive Studios and MachineGames. This new episode also features 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.

Want more? Players will also be able to choose between the original soundtrack by Bobby Prince, or the arranged IDKFA version by Andrew Hulshult (which you can download for free from ModDB). To top it all off, these new enhanced versions support cross-platform multiplayer for up to 16 players in both Deathmatch and co-op mode. Lastly, there’s the id Vault, which allows you to explore concept art from DOOM + DOOM II’s development, early versions of monsters, weapons, items, props, FX, HUD + Menus and textures that were left on the cutting room floor.
