Id Software Says It’s Working On Its Next Game, Directed By Doom’s Hugo Martin

Doom and Wolfenstein studio id Software has begun work on a new project, according to the studio’s official social account, and it’s being directed by Hugo Martin, who previously directed both Doom: The Dark Ages and Doom: Eternal.

We're incredibly excited about our next project, a new game from our teams in Texas and Frankfurt, with game direction once again by Hugo Martin. It'll be some time before we're ready to share more but we can't wait for you to see what we're working on.

This news comes over a year after the release of Doom: The Dark Ages. An expansion for The Dark Ages, “Revelations,” was out this past July, and a new “Slaughter Mode” is being implemented on Monday.

Martin’s involvement makes it likely that this is yet another Doom game even though that was not explicitly stated, which would be in keeping with Xbox head Asha Sharma’s ambitions to focus on the company’s biggest franchises. Id Software is also the developer of Rage, and Quake, and numerous Wolfenstein games (though not the most recent entries in the series).

This reassurance as to id Software’s current activities comes on the heels of a mass restructuring at Xbox in July that saw massive swaths of the company cut: over 90 individuals across multiple offices, including a large amount of its id Tech team (claims have suggested only one person was left working on id Tech, but Microsoft has said that is false and that “dozens” of people are working on it).
