Some people on Facebook are saying that DOOM 64 is playable on PS4 and it seems there is a single YouTube video of someone playing it



Could it be the collectors edition or did Bethesda accidentally release this on the PS Store already?

It seems to have the 3-sample bilinear filtering.
I'm quite doubtful that they would implement it for re-release of the game.

Very bright. This is supposed to be an upgraded version of the EX engine, right?

I really hope we can turn that down to something more like the original/EX version. This just looks blown out to me and some of that really cool lighting and horror vibe is missing.

Also, OP, is it out? Or did this guy just get an early copy of Eternal but decided to Stream 64 instead?

Looks great! Never played this, always thought it was just a port of the original Doom. So very excited to play an old-school Doom I never played before.

think you can tone down the brightness according to the developers

I don't know, I don't have a PS4 (my brother does) so I would like to know too. Could be but isn't the game a digital download?

The lighting is adjustable. This can be seen in Bethesda live streams of the game.

Also, according to the developers, this is not based on EX, but is a new (and more faithful) recreation of the game using their KEX engine. However, one of the developers is Samuel Villareal who did EX so there's obviously some knowledge that was transferred over.

I can't imagine that is the default brightness, but something that person has specifically set. It doesn't appear to be out, at least not in my region. Perhaps the collector's edition allows you to redeem it early?

I'd love to be able to play it now before Eternal drops.

I'm pumped. I just finished Project Warlock yesterday, and have a bunch of Steam cards about to sell on the 18th. Perfect timing.

Don't play Doom that bright.

Someone here must've preordered Doom Eternal on PS4 and should be able to check if this is actually up right?

Feels like somebody dun goofed, game is not available yet and it's also under embargo if you got a copy from Bethesda. I don't think you can play it from the physical version yet.

Man I sure hope this isn't how the brightness is by default. Shit looks really bad.


It needs to be dark to be Doom 64.

Just tried booting it up on X1 and it's still in "preorder" status, and I have the collectors edition. I think this is an "oopsie" situation.
