When gamers hear the name Bethesda, they may be too focused on some of their newer material like \u201cFallout\u201d or \u201cSkyrim\u201d to remember the roots of the company, a huge part of the early gaming industry: \u201cDoom.\u201d<\/p>\n
The original \u201cDoom\u201d was first released in 1993 and shocked the gaming industry with its graphic and bloody gameplay. Since its release, \u201cDoom\u201d has had numerous sequels, remasters, and a film. The newest \u201cDoom\u201d will be released this May.<\/p>\n
\u201cDoom\u201d follows a Space Marine working for the Union Aerospace Corporation who fights hordes of demons and undead. The original \u201cDoom\u201d was one of the first ever first person shooters and paved the way for current first person shooter games.<\/p>\n
The newest Doom was announced at E3 2015, executive producer Marty Stratton promised \u201cbadass demons, big effing guns, and moving really fast” as the game\u2019s key principles.<\/p>\n
\u201cDoom 3\u201d was released in 2004 and pushed the boundaries for violence in games, just as every installment of \u201cDoom\u201d had done in the past. The newest \u201cDoom\u201d is no different; the newly released campaign trailer shows off the game\u2019s action with chainsaws, dismemberment, and buckets of blood. It\u2019s safe to say that those with weak stomachs should stay far away.<\/p>\n
From the trailer, the new \u201cDoom\u201d is looking to be one of the most violent games ever created. The studio is shying away from the horror aspects of \u201cDoom 3,\u201d and jumping right into the fast-paced, gory goodness of the original.<\/p>\n
Doom will be released on May 13 for Playstation 4, Xbox One, and PC, and is up for pre-order now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
