During the E3 2015 games event taking place next month from June 16-18th 2015, Bethesda will be officially unveiling Doom 4. Today, they have released a teaser trailer offering a snippet to whet your appetite before the event.
Bethesda’s first E3 2015 press conference will take place on Monday, 15th June at 2:30am BST or Sunday night in the US and is expected to be the time and the place for the Doom 4 announcement.
The Legacy of Doom
Unfortunately, nothing else is known at the current time about the Doom 4 video game that will extend the Doom series, which was first launched by the original Doom way back in 1993, created by id Software. The original Doom was a groundbreaking first-person shooter that set the standard for the genre. It introduced players to fast-paced action, intricate level design, and a memorable arsenal of weapons.
“In Doom, players assume the role of an unnamed space marine, who became popularly known as “Doomguy”, fighting his way through hordes of invading demons from Hell. With one third of the game, nine levels, distributed as shareware, Doom was played by an estimated 10 million people within two years of its release, popularizing the mode of gameplay and spawning a gaming subculture.”
The impact of Doom on the gaming industry cannot be overstated. It not only popularized the first-person shooter genre but also introduced multiplayer deathmatches, which became a staple in many future games. The game’s success led to numerous sequels, spin-offs, and even a movie adaptation.
What to Expect from Doom 4
While specific details about Doom 4 remain scarce, fans of the series can expect the game to stay true to its roots while incorporating modern advancements in gaming technology. The teaser trailer hints at a return to the intense, fast-paced action that the series is known for, with improved graphics and more detailed environments.
One of the most anticipated aspects of Doom 4 is its potential to innovate within the genre. Given the advancements in gaming technology since the release of Doom 3 in 2004, players can look forward to enhanced graphics, more complex AI, and possibly new gameplay mechanics that will push the boundaries of the first-person shooter genre.
Moreover, the Doom series has always been known for its atmospheric and immersive sound design. Fans can expect Doom 4 to feature a gripping soundtrack and sound effects that heighten the tension and excitement of the gameplay.
Another exciting possibility is the inclusion of a robust multiplayer mode. The original Doom was a pioneer in multiplayer gaming, and it would be fitting for Doom 4 to offer a rich multiplayer experience that could include cooperative modes, competitive deathmatches, and possibly even new game modes that leverage modern online gaming capabilities.
When more information is made available by Bethesda, we will keep you updated as always. The anticipation for Doom 4 is palpable, and fans around the world are eagerly awaiting more details about what promises to be a thrilling addition to the legendary series.
