Switch Version of Doom Eternal Launches 8th December

It’s been a long wait but finally, Bethesda, id Software & Panic Button are pleased to announce that the Nintendo Switch version of Doom Eternal will be released on 8th December. Time to Raze Hell. Again.

While not as graphically powerful as the PS4/Xbox/PC versions, Doom Eternal will have the full experience so far as well as motion controls. There’s a fancy new trailer below.

Nintendo’s website is listing Doom Eternal as a 17GB download, and if you buy the game before 22nd December, you’ll get a bonus of Doom 64 as well as access to the Rip & Tear pack. This includes:

DOOT Revenant Skin: a premium player demon skin for use in BATTLEMODE

Cultist Base Master Level: a remixed version of the campaign level with new challenges, combat encounters, and surprises

Throwback Shotgun Weapon Skin: bring DOOM’s classic shotgun to bear on DOOM Eternal’s demon hordes

Unfortunately, there are a few cut backs we need to mention. Firstly, the multiplayer, while in tact, won’t feature cross play with other versions. There will also be no physical release, presumably to save on production costs.

If you’ve been waiting to take Doom Eternal on the go since it’s initial release in March, there’s not too long to wait until 8th December.
