Doom64

Today is a truly wonderful day in the world of gaming, with both Animal Crossing: New Horizons and DOOM Eternal finding their way to stores. Of course, the Nintendo Switch version of DOOM Eternal has sadly been pushed back, so if you don't have access to another console or are waiting to have the game on Switch, you might be feeling a little bit left out.

Thankfully, though, DOOM Eternal isn't the only demon-destroying game launching today. DOOM 64 is out today on Switch, a rerelease of the Nintendo 64 classic featuring brand new content not available in the original release. Surprisingly, the game's only priced at £3.99 / $4.99, which is slightly less than we'd expect for an N64 game.
