At PAX East 2020, USgamer found out from idy executive producer Marty Stratton that the studio didn’t mind placing Doom Hangman Rock Super Smash Bros. Ultimatebut the decision is for Nintendo. In addition, they discussed memes with the upcoming Doom Eternal and Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and the shooter version for Nintendo Switch.
In an interview, Marty Stretton said that the id Software team was discussing with Nintendo the idea of including Hangman Rock in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, given how many shooter and platform fans want this. But, as we said, the case is for Nintendo. “Nintendo is a great company, a great partner“Said Stretton. – Their console and their games are fantastic. When it comes to this kind of thing, we see all this noise around the executioner Doom’s desire in Smash – it really depends only on her. This is her game, and we respect that. ”.

With the approach of the release of the simultaneous Doom Eternal and Animal Crossing, the gaming community creates more and more memes, where the characters of both games appear. Fans dream of a crossover, and Stretton and id Software really like the mood of gamers. “I think it’s awesome. These two games are incredibly different. Both of them will be very high quality, polished games.– said Marty Stretton. – Hugo Martin said when we talked about this with other people: as if the movie “Evil Dead” came out simultaneously with the Disney movie, and people like this contrast. I think it is the contrast between these two games that makes memes so good. ”.

But, unfortunately for Doom fans, Doom Eternal will not be released on Nintendo Switch at the same time as Animal Crossing: New Horizons – the release on this platform will take place later. Executive producer id Software claims that porting the shooter to the console is progressing well.
“We did not talk about the timing – I can say that I played in [Switch-версию] about a week ago and i’m stunned“Said Stretton. – I have called our partner, Panic Button, platform masters many times, and they prove it again. I really think the game will surprise people. […] I see in the comments to our videos all the time: ″ I look forward to the opportunity to play it on Switch ″. I think people will like it. We pushed the release date, because we want to do everything right, we want the version of the game on the Nintendo Switch to be high-quality. In no case do we want to compromise ”.

id Software and Panic Button want Doom Eternal to play well on the Nintendo Switch, not only in TV mode, but also portable. Therefore, when porting, some elements of the user interface are redrawn, the menus are changed and other adjustments are made to make the shooter look good even on a small screen.
Doom Eternal will be released on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on March 20, 2020. Animal Crossing on the Nintendo Switch goes on sale the same day.
