Unfortunately, we won’t be ripping and tearing into DOOM Eternal or DOOM 64 this year, as Bethesda have announced that both games are delayed until next year.

In an announcement, id Software states that in order to “make sure we’re delivering the best experience”, the developers have decided to push the game’s release back to March 20, 2020. “We know many fans will be disappointed by this delay, but we are confident that DOOM Eternal will deliver a gaming experience that is worth the wait.”

To compensate, id has made the following changes:

The new Invasion Mode will now be released as a free update shortly after launch
The Switch version of DOOM Eternal will be released after the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions
DOOM 64 will be available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC in addition to the Switch, and will now be a pre-order bonus for DOOM Eternal on all platforms. DOOM 64‘s new release date is now also March 20, 2020

Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.

Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”

Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.

And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
