Doom Free Download for PC is a first-person shooter video game developed by id Software and published by Bethesda Softworks. A reboot of the Doom series, it is the fourth title in the main series and the first major installment therein since the release of Doom 3 in 2004. The game was released worldwide on Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on May 13, 2016. The game is powered by id Tech 6.
The game is played entirely from a first-person perspective, with players taking the role of an unnamed marine, as he battles demonic forces from Hell that have been unleashed by the Union Aerospace Corporation on a future-set colonized planet Mars. The gameplay returns to a faster pace with more open-ended levels, closer to the first two games rather than the slower survival horror approach taken by Doom 3. It also features environment traversal, character upgrades, and the ability to perform executions on enemies known as «glory kills». The game also supports an online multiplayer component and a level editor known as «SnapMap», both co-developed with id Software by Certain Affinity[a] and Escalation Studios respectively.

Originally announced as Doom 4 in 2008, the game underwent an extensive development cycle with different builds and designs before being restarted in 2011 and revealed as simply Doom in 2014. The old version of the game was described as «Call of Doom», while the new version was inspired by rock and roll. The game was tested both by people who pre-ordered another Bethesda game, Wolfenstein: The New Order, and the general public. Mick Gordon composed the music for the game, with additional music contributed by Ben F. Carney, Chris Hite and Chad Mossholder.
Despite receiving negative criticism during the beta period, Doom was very well received by critics and players; the single-player campaign, graphics, and gameplay were praised, whereas the multiplayer mode drew the most criticism. The game was the second best-selling video game in North America and the UK a few weeks after its release, and sold over 500,000 copies game free Download for PC Full Versions within the same time period.
Gameplay
Single-player
Doom's single-player mode has «badass demons, big effing guns, and moving really fast» as key principles, according to id Software Executive Producer Marty Stratton. Throughout levels of industrial and corporate fields of a Union Aerospace Corporation (UAC) research facility on Mars and then of Hell, as the combat system puts emphasis upon momentum and speed, the game allows players to perform movements such as double-jumps and ledge-climbs. The approach is known as «push-forward combat», which discourages the players, playing from the «Doom Slayer»'s perspective, from taking cover behind obstacles or resting to regain health. Players instead collect health and armour pick-ups by killing enemies. «Glory Kills» is a newly introduced melee execution system wherein, when enough damage has been dealt to an enemy, the game will highlight it and allow the player to perform a quick and violent melee takedown as well as reward the player with extra health.

The game features a large arsenal of weapons which can be collected and freely switched by players throughout the game and require no reloading. Weapons that are recurrent throughout the series, including the super shotgun and BFG 9000, make a return. However, in the case of the latter, the BFG only has a very small ammunition capacity but is extremely powerful. Similarly, the chainsaw returns but instead is a special-use weapon that relies upon fuel but can be used to instantly cut through enemies and provide a greater-than-normal drop of ammunition for the player.
Many enemies from the original games such as the Revenant, Pinky, Mancubus, and Cyberdemon also return, with many also redesigned. Doom's campaign was made to be over 13 hours long, and the «Ultra-Nightmare» difficulty level features permadeath, which causes the savegame to be lost once the player dies. The campaign also features 13 maps.
Many of the levels have multiple pathways and open areas, which allow players to explore and find collectibles and secrets throughout the levels. Many of these collectibles can be used as part of Doom's progression system, including weapon mods, rune powers and Praetor Suit upgrades. Weapon points, which come from field drones, allow the player to unlock alternate modes of fire for many weapons, such as explosive shots and different rate and output of firepower. Each of the weapons' firing modes can be further upgraded using weapon tokens, and they can only be maxed out by completing a challenge related to the use of said firing mode. Runes, once found, transport the player to a separate arena to perform a combat challenge that, when successfully completed, grants different abilities such as better equipment drops from fallen enemies. Players can also upgrade their «Praetor Suit» by increasing health, armor, ammunition by retrieving special tokens from dead marines. Other pickups include small Doomguy figurines and data files that expand on the characters and story. Doom game free Download for PC Full Version.
Additionally, each of the game's levels contains a hidden lever that opens an area that is an extract of a classic level from the original Doom or Doom II. Finding each of these areas unlocks them, making them accessible from the game's main menu in a section called Classic Maps.
Multiplayer
In Doom's multiplayer mode, several modes, such as team deathmatch and its variation «Soul Harvest», as well as freeze tag, warpath (King of the Hill with a moving 'hill'), domination, and «Clan Arena» (team last man standing with no pickups), exist within the game. Players can also use power-ups and teleporters in a multiplayer match. They can pick up a pentagram, one of the power-ups featured, to transform into and fight as a demon. There are four demons available initially in the game, each of which has different abilities: the Revenant, the Baron of Hell, the Mancubus, and the Prowler. At launch, the game featured nine maps.
Players will be granted experience points upon each match. After they have collected sufficient experience points, players can level up, by which new armor, skins, weapons, and power-ups would be unlocked for players to use. Both the player character and weapon can be customized extensively by applying new skins and colors onto them. In addition, players can receive hack modules while playing the game, which are special abilities that can only be used once after they are collected. There are six types of modules. Scout reveals the locations of all enemies to the player for a limited time after respawning, while Vital Signs shows all enemies' health. Retribution allows players to track their last killer by showing their health and location, while Power Seeker guides players to the power weapon pickup in the game. The Resupply Timer, meanwhile, shows the respawn time of the power-up items. Players can also perform taunts in the game's multiplayer.
Plot
Doom is set in a research facility on Mars owned by the Union Aerospace Corporation. The director of the facility is Samuel Hayden, whose mind now inhabits an android body after he lost his original one to brain cancer. The researchers attempted to draw energy from Hell in order to solve an energy crisis on Earth. This was done with the Argent Tower, which not only siphons energy from Hell, but allows travel to and from there. Hayden has already led multiple expeditions into Hell, bringing back captive demons and artifacts for study. One artifact was a sarcophagus containing the Doom Slayer, whom the demons imprisoned after his rampage through Hell.
The facility has been invaded by demons after one of its scientists, Olivia Pierce, made a pact with them and opened a portal to Hell. In desperation, Samuel Hayden releases the Doom Slayer from his sarcophagus to repel the demonic invasion and close the portal. The Doom Slayer fights his way through the overrun facility and makes several excursions into Hell. He steals a magical blade called «the Crucible», which he then uses to destroy the portal's power source. He shortly comes across Pierce, who transforms into the monstrous Spider Mastermind, and kills her. Upon the Doom Slayer's return to Mars, Hayden confiscates the Crucible, which he plans to use in his research. Despite all that has happened, Earth is too desperate for energy to give up. To prevent the Doom Slayer from interfering, Hayden teleports him to an undisclosed location, saying that they will meet again.
Development
After the game's redesign began, Willits revealed in August 2013 that the next game in the Doom franchise was still the team's focus although he did not make it clear whether the game was still meant to be titled Doom 4. British writer Graham Joyce was enlisted to write the game's story; Joyce, however, died in 2014, and Adam Gascoine was brought in as a replacement.
A teaser trailer of Doom was presented at Electronic Entertainment Expo 2014 as well as on QuakeCon's website and on a new official Doom website. A more expansive trailer was unveiled at QuakeCon 2014 on July 17, wherein a closed presentation was made mainly to silence ongoing rumors of the project being in jeopardy. Also at QuakeCon 2014, id Software executive producer Marty Stratton, the host of the presentation, announced that Doom 4 was officially renamed as Doom for the reason that «it’s an origin game, reimagining everything about the originals».[46] In light of Crytek's financial difficulties, it was announced that Tiago Sousa, head R&D graphics engineer at Crytek, was leaving to join the Doom and id Tech 6 engine team as a lead programmer.[47]
Bethesda released a brief teaser trailer to promote gameplay being shown at E3 2015 on June 14, 2015; the trailer depicted the double-barreled shotgun and the Revenant, a monster returning to the game. On June 14, around 15 minutes of gameplay footage were shown at E3. Regarding the progression system, Marty Stratton thought that it was an important part of the game to have the ability of personalization and customization.
The greatest challenge that id Software experienced while developing the game was to create a game that could compete with other popular shooters such as Call of Duty and Battlefield, as they considered that the popularity of the Doom series among younger audiences is relatively low when compared to the aforementioned franchises, since the last installment in the series was released back in 2004. Another challenge that they encountered was to build a game that would be unique enough to establish its own identity, while «being faithful» to other games in the series. According to Stratton, in order to solve these challenges, the team consulted the game directors at Bethesda Game Studios, who he considered [had gone]« through the same thing when they were working on Fallout 3.»
On July 2, 2015, Stratton revealed that the game would not take place on Earth unlike the canceled Doom 4 and that, unlike Doom 3 and inspired by the two originals, Doom would not take itself seriously and that it was being designed to be comic and «very juvenile almost in their approach». Director Hugo Martin later said that the game was heavily inspired by rock and roll and He-Man and the Masters of the Universe and that its Hell-themed levels would feature much heavy metal. He also said that Doom's world was designed to have a certain level of personality and be «over the top»; the UAC industrial field was designed to be the massive underbelly of the corporation, the UAC corporate field zone was designed to be much cleaner in terms of splattered goriness than the other zones to prevent the feeling of repetition, and Stratton said that skulls were used in Hell as iconic elements and that the Titan's Realm zone was constructed from dead ancient, colossal demons. At QuakeCon 2015, it was announced that the game would run at 1080p and 60 frames per second on console, as they considered it «the most necessary graphical goal» which could effectively improve gameplay fluidity. According to Martin, the team did not put lots of emphasis upon the game's story, as they believed that it is not an important feature of the franchise. He later said that he knew that some fans would not like to see story be obstructive to the gameplay of a first-person shooter such as Doom and that players could optionally find codex entries for clues in order to fill the gaps with their own ideas and theorize about who the Doom Slayer is, from where he came, and why he is there.
