E3 2015: DOOM Shown At E3

Bethesda opened up their first ever conference at E3 by showing off the new title in the Doom franchise.  There was roughly 10-15 minutes worth of single player footage shown off and a little bit of multiplayer.

Hell is coming…

To kill the enemies, players will have new different weapons at their disposal.  Old weapons also make a triumphant return.  The BFG looks more updated and was shown off killing a large demon (possibly a boss) to close off the demo.

Besides the 10-15 minutes worth of single player shown off, fans were treated to a little bit of multiplayer.  Multiplayer will include a mode where you can create matches and share them with your friends and the community.  No word yet on when we can expect to play the beta for Doom but it was said to expect to hear something in the coming months.

Doom will be coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC in the Spring of 2016.
