(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Disclaimer: First impressions not final impressions, did play the closed alpha before this closed beta.

Doom having short closed beta with no NDA only lasts for 72 hours. Group together my first impressions from the PS4 version.


  • Customization options within a doom game that an interesting choice given the theme.
  • Health pickups and armour neat
  • Arena style maps
  • No weapon pickups just loadouts not sure how I feel about that
  • Gore loads of it and taunts
  • Causal friendly doom reboot feels like it
  • Game feels slow pace even if you move little fast
  • Progression system :(
  • Strange hybrid shooter that mix between modern titles and arena shooters
  • Failing to see the doom within this game given some of the design choices like paint jobs.
  • Playing against high ping players?
  • Hate to see the PC version play speed given how slow console feels...
  • You don't instant kill people that good
  • Announcer does not fit into the theme
  • Pink Demon hello
  • Announcer sounds bored.....



Once again not my final views the game is promising for various reasons.

Love the feel of it not going to lie.
