How it feels

A brutal, unrelenting gauntlet through hellish corridors that demands sharp reflexes and punishes complacency at every turn.

About

Final Doom is a compilation of two standalone episodes: TNT: Evilution and The Plutonia Experiment, which include full sets of new levels (both of them use the same level structure as Doom II with 30 regular levels and 2 secret levels), new graphics and textures, and new text interlude screens in addition to most of the resources from Doom II and some from Doom.

What players say

The PS1 port is renowned for transforming Doom into something closer to a horror experience via Aubrey Hodges' dark ambient soundscapes, which fans consider a revelation. Eerie, brooding and unnerving despite slightly easier levels.
