Doom's id Software working on new brand new game |
Ó
Id Software, creators of the epic Quake and Doom franchise, has revealed that a new gaming franchise is in the works. "We are working on an all-new franchise: it's not Doom, it's not Quake, it's not Wolfenstein, it's not Enemy Territory, it's not even Commander Keen," says Todd Hollenshead, CEO for id Software. "It is a new id brand with an all-new John Carmack engine and I think that when we show it to people, once again they'll see, just like they saw when we first showed Doom 3, that John Carmack still has a lot of magic left."John Carmack, the programming genius who created the phenomenal Doom (and can anyone remember Wolfenstein 3D?), is now working on something that Hollenshead emphasizes is different from Doom, Quake, and other id Software titles. "It is a new id brand with an all-new John Carmack engine and I think that when we show it to people, once again they'll see, just like they saw when we first showed Doom 3, that John Carmack still has a lot of magic left."
When asked about some details regarding this new project, Hollenshead prefers to keep mum about it. "The new stuff that we're working on does have a brand new engine that John has been working on, actually is still working on today. We canÂ’t really talk any details about it; we'll see about when the timing is right for an announcement. We like to be able to talk about stuff that we can show at the same time and it's not really ready to show yet."
Whatever it is, we bet that it's well worth the wait. In the meantime, there's Enemy Territory: Quake Wars to look forward to.
