Doom is 10 years old today, and you can pick it up for just $2 on Steam

This is not a deal to be missed.

Doom is 10 years old today, and you can pick it up for just $2 on Steam

Today is the 10th anniversary of Doom—not the 1993 classic that changed the world, but the 2016 reboot that proved to be far better than I’d dared to hope. We celebrated the big birthday by confirming with Doom co-creator John Romero that Doom Guy was not intentionally rocking a sexy tummy window, but had in fact had his shirt torn open by the legions of Hell. Why did we do this? Because we’re PC Gamer and we do whatever the hell we want, that’s why.

Others have apparently chosen to mark the memorable moment in more conventional ways—such as Doom overlord Bethesda Softworks, which has marked that great shooter down to just $2/£1.59/€2 on Steam, 90% off the regular price. Doom is, to be clear, well worth that regular price—as a stand-up, balls-out, rip-and-tear killfest, there are very few better—so for $2, it’s an absolute steal.

“The most striking thing about the new Doom, to me, is how refreshing it is to play a game so rooted in the design sensibilities of 1994. These ideas don’t feel old,” PC Gamer’s Wes Fenlon wrote in 2016, when we awarded Doom our Best Comeback GOTY award.

“From the moment your character throws an exposition-delivering monitor into the wall, Doom signals that this is a game of pure adrenaline, and that the new ways aren’t necessarily the best ways. And it’s absolutely right. Nobody makes games like the original Doom anymore, but after Doom 2016 it’s hard to remember why.”

It really is that good, and you’re probably not going to find a better $2 shooter today than this one. But what if you already own it? I have good news for you there, too: It’s all on sale.

  • Doom + Doom 2 – $4/£3.19/€4 (60% off)
  • Doom 3 – $4/£3.19/€4 (60% off)
  • Doom 64 – $2/£1.59/€2 (60% off)
  • Doom Eternal – $10/£8.74/€10 (75% off)
  • Doom: The Dark Ages – $23.09/£23.09/€26.39 (67% off)

Those are pretty good deals across the board, but the simple fact is that there’s one can’t-miss deal among them, and that’s the 2016 reboot—which is also, you may have noticed, the cheapest of the bunch. Trust me, if you don’t have it, you want to get it. You also don’t want to horse around about it too much, because the sale (on all of them) ends in just a couple days, on May 15.
