Bethesda quietly announces March release for Mighty Doom

Back in 2021, Bethesda quietly soft-launched a new DOOM game, Mighty Doom, a single-touch shooter for mobile devices. The game has been in testing on Android and iOS in a few select regions ever since, but now, the game will soon launch worldwide. 

Today, Bethesda's Alpha Dog Studios unveiled the new trailer for Mighty Doom. While traditionally, Doom is known for its gory visuals, Mighty Doom goes in a more cartoony direction with its art style. The Doom Slayer and his demon foes are all presented as colourful action figures, so it is clear this is targeting a different market compared to a typical Doom game.

The game's official description reads: “Mighty DOOM is an adorably violent top-down, single-touch action shooter introducing the all-new Mini Slayer, set in the animated DOOM universe. Run and gun your way through hordes of adorably violent demons, iconic levels, and challenging bosses as you level up, unlock powerful skills, and upgrade gear and weapons.”

Mighty Doom will be available on iOS and Android starting on the 21st of March.

KitGuru Says: This is a mobile roguelike, which is dangerous territory as far as microtransactions are concerned. The game already received plenty of criticism for its microtransactions during alpha testing, so perhaps things will have improved for the launch, but that is rarely the case when it comes to mobile titles, as we saw with Diablo Immortal and countless others.

Black Ops 6 is officially here, bringing the innovative new Omni-movement system to the game. While on the surface a relatively simple change, I argue that Treyarch intimately studied DOOM and the past 30 years of first-person shooter evolution to craft one of the most satisfying gameplay systems yet.
