Doom 4 announced, rumored to be running on new multiplatform engine?
Posted by admin in Video Games
This just in, id Software has started production on Doom 4 and has opened hiring for the game’s producer, lead designer, lead animator, and more.
This is a pretty huge announcement considering what the Doom franchise means to gamers. Even id Software CEO Todd Hollenshead took some time to comment about the game and its importance to their company as well.
Doom is part of the id Software DNA and demands the greatest talent and brightest minds in the industry to bring the next installment of our flagship franchise to Earth. It’s critical for id Software to have the best creative minds in-house to develop games that meet the standards synonymous with our titles.
While details on this game have been rather sketchy, rumor has it that the game will be going cross-platform using their new proprietary engine called Tech 5 which, according to the company’s lead artist Kevin Cloud, is running great:
You don’t even have to worry about how it’s going to look on PS3 or 360. Right now we’ve got it running cross-platform running 60 hertz, and it looks really good.In terms of what artists are available to achieve–it’s something you have to see for yourself. I have the ability to state this, but you still won’t get it until you see it.
