DOOM 2 celebrates the big 25 this month, and like the original, it’s received plenty of mods. With DOOM Eternal being released in the not-too-distant future, the question arises: What would DOOM 2016 look like if it came out twenty-three years ago?
The answer: Doom 4 Vanilla. A ‘demake’ mod for Doom 2, Doom 4 Vanilla takes everything it can from DOOM, and brings it back to 1995. That translates into new monsters, guns, music, art and levels.
While the main brains behind the mod is modder “Noiser”, Doom 4 Vanilla uses sprites, textures and audio from over twenty other contributors. All you need to get in on the fun with this mod (which you can download from Doomworld) is a commercial copy of Doom 2.
