Doom 64
Back in July, Bethesda released 3 classic Doom games on the Nintendo Switch: Doom (the original), Doom II, and Doom 3. But one game is still missing: Doom 64. Originally released on Nintendo 64, it’s a sequel to Doom II, and was never ported to any other platform… until now. The game recently popped up on the website of the Australian Classification Board, which indicates a re-release is going to happen in the near future:
Right now, it’s not guaranteed that it will be released on Nintendo Switch, but considering the classic Doom games were all re-released on the Nintendo eShop, the chances of Doom 64 skipping that platform are fairly slim.
