E3: New Doom game and Fallout 4 date announced

Post-apocalyptic video game Fallout 4 will be released on 10 November, publisher Bethesda has announced. A reboot of Doom will also launch in spring next year, with a feature allowing gamers to create their own custom maps and modes. The details were revealed at Bethesda’s first ever news conference at the Electronic Entertainment Expo - known as the E3 games show - in Los Angeles.

The company is trying to position itself as a major player alongside the likes of Electronic Arts and Activision. Gameplay sequences from Fallout 4 were shown for the first time, along with a companion smartphone game called Fallout Shelter. Players will also spend more time in a 'pre-apocalypse’ world, which is a departure from previous games.

These creatures are fake. Their blood is fake. It is okay to want to kill fake things sometimes. Anger exists.
