The console wars wont affect DOOM, because it will be 1080p and 60 FPS on Xbox One and PlayStation 4
Me personally I don’t care about the whole console war nonsense (please let there be peace) but, I know that a lot of you out there will like to know this. Yes, DOOM will be 1080p and 60FPS. This was confirmed by Lead Project Programmer, Billy Khan, who said this on the DOOM website “We want players to wonder how DOOM and idTech 6 games can be so visually stunning at 60 frames-per-second at 1080p on all platforms, when other titles cannot even achieve a similar look at 30 frames-per-second,” “Our goal is to be the best-looking game at 1080p at 60fps.” The DOOM development team have really high hopes, and who can blame them? DOOM is practically the best FPS Horror game out there. And this has been said by many people so it shouldn’t be surprising that the team is working very hard to please and entertain their fans. The DOOM team have made a page on their website called “22 reasons to love DOOM“, celebrating the 22nd anniversary of DOOM, and it says how the team is making DOOM and some more facts about DOOM, such as new multiplayer modes and weapons, plus more. I recommend giving it a read if your interested in that kind of stuff. (Same link I used to find the quote)
