Doom Fans, Brace Yourselves!
Get ready for a gaming experience like no other! Limited Run Games is set to release physical editions of the legendary Doom and Doom II, but one edition in particular is turning heads: the Will It Run Edition.
A Game Box That Plays Doom?
That’s right! This special edition comes with a slick game box that not only holds the titles but plays the original Doom itself! Picture this: plug in your USB controller and dive straight into retro action—you won't need a console for that nostalgic play!
Price Tag Fit for the Underworld!
At a spine-chilling $666, this limited edition nods to its devilish source material. Only 666 copies will be released, each packed with exclusive goodies. In addition to the playable box, you'll receive the soundtrack on cassette, a certificate of authenticity, and a collectible trading card pack featuring five unique cards.
Collectible Cacodemons!
And that’s not all! This edition includes a super detailed three-inch Cacodemon figurine that connects to a stylish five-inch base, plus a smaller handheld Cacodemon—yep, you guessed it, it runs Doom too!
Multiple Platforms to Choose From!
The Will It Run Edition is available for Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and even PC. Note that the PC version includes a download code instead of physical copies, but hey, it’s still Doom!
Preorders and Prices!
Mark your calendars: preorders open on April 18 and close on May 18, with the official release to follow shortly after. If the $666 price tag is a bit too steep, there are other options available. The Big Box Edition is priced at $100, featuring both games, a larger box, a trading card set, and the cassette soundtrack, while the Standard Edition is just $30 and includes both games.
Modern Upgrades for a Classic!
But don’t think these are just old ports! The developer has jazzed things up with modern enhancements. Expect upgraded visuals at a crisp 60 FPS and 16:9 support, faster weapon switching, gyroscopic aiming, and both local four-player co-op and online play.
Plus, dive into a treasure trove of new maps and community mods, including a brand-new episode titled Legacy of Rust, co-designed by the legends at id Software, Nightdive Studios, and MachineGames. And to sweeten the deal, players can switch between the classic soundtrack and a contemporary score.
Get Ready to Game!
Doom fans, prepare for one hell of a ride—literally! With a mix of nostalgia and modern gaming flair, this limited edition is set to be a collector’s dream.
