Doom studio id Software confirms it's working on a new game
But, just as with the next Elder Scrolls game, "it'll be some time" before it's ready to share more.
Xbox CEO Asha Sharma announced on X that id Software, the studio behind the iconic Doom games, is developing a new game. The announcement came as part of Sharma's posts to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the original Xbox console. The new game's development is underway at id Software's offices in Texas and Frankfurt, with game direction once again handled by Hugo Martin.
The studio's previous title, Doom: The Dark Ages, was released over a year ago, although its expansion, Revelations, was only launched in July. In response to Sharma's announcement, id Software confirmed that a new game is indeed in the works, though it will take some time before more details are shared.
The timing of this announcement may be related to the shared ownership of Bethesda Softworks, the parent company of id Software, by ZeniMax Media, which is owned by Xbox. This raises the question of whether the new game could be related to Bethesda's upcoming The Elder Scrolls 6: Sentinel, which has been under development for eight years. However, both companies have emphasized that they are still committed to delivering more details in due time.
