During last week's Nintendo Direct, the Japanese company and Bethesda confirmed that DOOM will launch on Nintendo Switch before the end of the year. A final release date has yet to be announced, but it seems like the game will release this December in the West.
Czech retailer Kuma.cz is currently listing the game for a December 13th in Europe. With Bethesda talking about a Holiday release for the game, this date sounds likely, but without an official announcement, we must take it with a grain of salt.
DOOM has been originally released on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One last year. The game retains many of the features that made the series so unique while expanding the experience as a whole.
