Latest update for Doom and Doom II adds Add-Ons, Quick Saves, 60 FPS support, more

As promised back in December, Bethesda has updated the recent re-releases of Doom (1993) and Doom II with a bevy of new features.

The biggest new addition to both titles is support for Add-Ons, which will initially include a number of popular semi-official WADs. The Final Doom campaigns (TnT: Evilution and The Plutonia Experiment) are now available to download for free through either game. Another bonus campaign will be available to Doom players looking to grab John Romero’s Sigil, while Doom II fans will be able to download the previously XBLA-exclusive expansion No Rest For the Living.

More Add-Ons will be added to Doom and Doom II at a later date.

Other new features included in this update are native support for visuals at 60 FPS, a Quick Saves option, and multiple Quality-of-Life Adjustments (including a “Quick Weapon Select feature, improved Level Select function, added Aspect Ratio and Brightness options, a new split-screen HUD, and more”).

You can learn more about everything that was added to Doom and Doom II today by visiting the Patch Notes page on Bethesda.net.
