Doom pre-load live on the North American and European Switch eShops, updated file size
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 6 Comments
Update: You can pre-load Doom on the North American Switch eShop now as well.
Original: Pre-loading on the Switch eShop is beginning to become more and more common. The latest game to have made this option available is Doom, which arrives later this week. Switch owners in Europe can begin pre-loading Doom now.
On another note, we also have an update on the file size. It was sitting at around 13.4GB. Now, however, it’s at 21.3GB. That likely means multiplayer will be built in rather than a separate download, despite what was thought last week.
Thanks to Matthew M for the tip.

Doom Switch dev says the port has been “wicked hard”, wishes gamers didn’t focus on tech specs over fun
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 318 Comments
Panic Button is leading the way on some big third-party ports for Switch. The studio was first assigned with the task of putting Rocket League on the platform, and is also working on Bethesda for the Doom port.
Speaking with GamesRadar, Panic Button’s Adam Creighton said that for Doom, the scalable technology made the port “more straightforward than maybe it could have been.” However, it was also “wicked hard”.
Creighton told the site:

Doom may have motion controls on Switch after all
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 24 Comments
Update: Nintendo World Report clarified that the motion controls aren’t for gyro aiming. Instead, you can shake the right Joy-Con to do melee attacks or Glory Kills. The setting only seems to appear if you’re playing with the Joy-Con.
Original: Bethesda originally said that Doom wouldn’t have motion controls on Switch. Perhaps the publisher had a change of heart, as new evidence indicates that the feature is in the game after all.
In a now-removed video, the settings menu for Doom on Switch was shown. Before it was taken down, a screenshot was snapped that clearly shows an option for motion controls. It wouldn’t make much sense for it to be there if the functionality wasn’t planned, right? We’ll have to see how this plays out, but things are looking good for motion controls with Doom on Switch.
