Next month will see the highly-anticipated release of DOOM on the Nintendo Switch, and now the official release date has been revealed. Bethesda has announced that the game will be coming to Nintendo’s new console on November 10, which puts it near the release of Bethesda’s The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim on the console.
DOOM was one of the biggest surprises of 2016 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, delivering one of the best FPS campaigns of recent memory. Now Nintendo Switch fans are going to be able to get in on that same awesome action, though the game obviously won’t look or run as well on the Switch compared to the more powerful platforms. It also won’t include the SnapMap editor featured in the other versions, which essentially allowed you to create your own maps.
The following is an overview of the game’s key features:
- A Relentless Campaign – 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.
- Return of id Multiplayer – Dominate your opponents in Doom‘s signature, fast-paced arena-style combat. In both classic and all-new game modes, annihilate your enemies utilizing your personal blend of skill, powerful weapons, vertical movement, and unique power-ups that allow you to play as a demon.
DOOM for Switch will launch on November 10, and you can learn more about how the game runs on the console right here.
