The eagerly anticipated Doom Eternal has been delayed. Originally scheduled to launch on November 22nd, Doom Eternal has now been pushed back all the way to March 20th, 2020.<\/p>\n<p>As ever with these things, the official line is this is a necessary step to allow Doom Eternal to become the base game it can possible be.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThroughout the development of DOOM Eternal, our goal has been to deliver a game that exceeds your greatest expectations across the board,\u201d<\/em> writes Id Software.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cTo make sure we\u2019re delivering the best experience &#8212; for DOOM Eternal to live up to our standards of speed and polish &#8212; we\u2019ve made the decision to extend our launch date by a few months to March 20, 2020.\u00a0 We know many fans will be disappointed by this delay, but we are confident that DOOM Eternal will deliver a gaming experience that is worth the wait.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><ins class=\"adsbygoogle scrolling-ad-item\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0052787453283862\" data-ad-slot=\"2741061911\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p>Just to soften the blow somewhat, Id Software has thrown in a few extras. The Invasion Mode will allow players to enter other player\u2019s game as a demon. <\/p>\n<p>The recently announced Doom 64 is also now being thrown in as a pre-order bonus on all platforms. Simply pre-order Doom Eternal and you\u2019ll get yourself a copy of Doom 64 on March 20th, 2020. It\u2019s a bit of a shame they can\u2019t get it out there sooner, to be honest, to give Doom fans something to chew on during the delay.<\/p>\n<p>And lastly, some fairly brutal news for Doom-nuts on Nintendo Switch. Not only has the Switch version of Doom Eternal also been delayed, obviously, but it\u2019s now going to launch <em>after <\/em>the other platforms. That\u2019s a hell of a wait.<\/p>\n<p>I have to say it\u2019s a case of out of the frying pan and into the hell-fire as a result of this delay. November was looking fiercely packed with the likes of Red Dead Redemption 2, Death Stranding, Shenmue 3, Planet Zoo, Need For Speed Heat, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order,\u00a0 and Pokemon, so it makes sense for Doom Eternal to dodge this rush. However, it\u2019s now launching within a matter of weeks of Watch Dogs Legion, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Animal Crossing, Vampire: The Masquerade &#8211; Bloodlines 2, and Cyberpunk 2077. Doom Eternal can\u2019t seem to catch a break.<\/p>\n<p>This also raises big questions over Google Stadia\u2019s launch. Google hasn\u2019t announced a firm release date for its streaming service outside of \u2018November 2019\u2019 but Doom Eternal was the cornerstone of its Stadia demos. With that off the table, Google Stadia\u2019s launch is looking even more tepid.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, following the delay, Doom Eternal will launch on March 20th, 2020, for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Google Stadia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>System Requirements Low vs Ultra Screenshots GPU Performance Chart CPU List That Meet System Requirements&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2628,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[234,659,724,1098,1097],"class_list":["post-2627","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-game-news","tag-doom","tag-eternal","tag-march","tag-rip","tag-tear"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2627","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2627"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2627\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2628"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2627"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2627"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2627"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
