Doom has been officially brought back in a special retail box.
Limited Run Games, a company famed for its niche indie releases and retro classics, has revealed plans to re-launch the iconic DOS shooters, Doom and Doom II, in various bundles for current consoles and PCs. The standard edition, which comes with both games and their expansion packs (TNT: Eviloution, The Plutonia Experiment, Master Levels for Doom II, No Rest for the Living, Sigil, Sigil II, and Legacy of Rust), will be available on PlayStation 5 (PS5), Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch for a price of $29.99.
Big Box Edition
Moreover, there’s a “Big Box Edition” that boasts all the games mentioned above along with some collectible items, such as cassette tapes featuring either the original MIDI soundtracks or updated IDKFA recordings, plus trading cards. This version is also offered for PC, but it requires a Steam Key. The retail price for the Big Box Edition is $99.99.
Will It Run Edition
The standout option, however, is the “Will It Run” Edition, which includes everything listed earlier and features a small Cacodemon figurine that can float above its base using magnets, a mini handheld Cacodemon capable of running Doom on a tiny display, and a large retail box that Limited Run Games claims is able to play Doom.
From the pictures, it’s not clear if the box can actually run Doom, as it seems to have only buttons for power and volume.
This edition will be in limited supply since Limited Run Games plans to sell only 666 copies, each priced at $666.66.
