FPS Classics Reborn: Delisted Games Poised for Console Comeback

Doom Slayers Collection Rumored for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S Return

The Doom Slayers Collection, a compilation of four classic and modern Doom titles, may be making a comeback on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. The collection, which was delisted in 2024, has received new ESRB ratings suggesting a re-release on current-gen consoles. The collection includes remasters of Doom, Doom II, Doom III, and the 2016 Doom reboot. Notably, the ratings exclude last-gen consoles and the Nintendo Switch.

The original 1993 Doom revolutionized the first-person shooter genre, pioneering 3D graphics, multiplayer, and mod support. Its enduring legacy extends beyond gaming, encompassing films and even near-misses in crossovers like Secret Level. The potential return of the Slayers Collection follows a pattern established by publisher Bethesda, who previously delisted individual Doom titles before re-releasing them in updated packages.

The ESRB's "M" rating for the collection, alongside a similar rating for Doom 64 (included in the physical edition of the Slayers Collection), strongly hints at a digital re-launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. This aligns with id Software's history of porting its titles to current-gen platforms, as seen with Quake II.

Games Included in the Doom Slayers Collection:

  • Doom
  • Doom II
  • Doom III
  • Doom (2016)

Beyond the potential Slayers Collection revival, fans eagerly anticipate the release of Doom: The Dark Ages, a prequel set in a medieval setting, slated for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC in 2025. This promises a unique twist on the established sci-fi franchise.
