Rumor: Beloved Nintendo 64 Exclusive Coming to Modern Consoles

Summary

  • Updated ESRB ratings hint at a potential new port of Doom 64 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.
  • The 2020 release for PS4 and Xbox One featured enhanced graphics and a new chapter.
  • Doom: The Dark Ages is anticipated for release in 2025.

Doom 64, the classic 1997 first-person shooter, could be making its way to current-gen consoles. While neither Bethesda nor id Software have made an official announcement, a recently updated ESRB rating lists Doom 64 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. This suggests a release is imminent, as developers typically submit games to the ESRB close to launch to ensure accurate content labeling. Past instances, like the 2023 ESRB rating for Felix the Cat's re-release before its official announcement by Konami, support this theory.

Originally a Nintendo 64 exclusive, Doom 64 received a 2020 port for PS4 and Xbox One, boasting technical improvements and additional content. This new ESRB rating indicates a potential expansion to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, though a PC release remains unconfirmed. Interestingly, the 2020 version included a Steam release, and a mod even allows players to transform classic Doom titles into a Doom 64 experience. Given Bethesda's history of quietly releasing older Doom ports, a similar approach for Doom 64 is possible. Fans should anticipate a surprise release.

Beyond Doom 64, 2025 promises another exciting entry in the franchise: Doom: The Dark Ages. While a concrete release date is yet to be revealed, rumors point towards a January announcement, with a launch sometime in 2025. These re-releases of classic titles offer a fantastic way for players to prepare for the next chapter in the long-running Doom saga.
