‘Doom’ Multiplayer Beta Goes Public On Friday

On the fifteenth day of the Fool’s month, the world will be Doom’d.
– The Prophecy, as it was written on a 4,000 year-old Babylonian Kindle.

It’s happening. On Friday, the Doom multiplayer beta will go public as the legions of Hell spew forth from their infernal tomb to blanket our world in total darkness for three whole days. There will be blood, and yes, giblets too. There’s no escaping the avalanche of demonic rabblerousery that’s headed our way. Don’t bother hiding from it, they like the hunt.

From April 15-17, everyone will have the opportunity to try the Team Deathmatch and Warpath game modes on two of the nine maps — Heatwave and Infernal — that will come with the new Doom when it hits PC, PS4 and Xbox One on May 13. Preload the beta now and you’ll be ready before things start to… heat up.

And here’s a nifty time-lapse video of the community-chosen reverse sleeve:

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
