DOOM Eternal E3 2019 Preview

Obviously the Doom Eternal that releases on Switch won't be as visually impressive as the version that comes to PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Nintendo's console/handheld hybrid simply doesn't have the technical power of its competition. Video game studio Panic Button, who did the Switch ports for the Doom reboot and another Bethesda shooter Wolfenstein II:The New Colossus , have done an extraordinarily job translating both those games to system. It appears the company will be on hand for Doom Eternal too since Panic Button tweeted out the news of Doom Eternal coming to Switch. Regardless if Panic Button is behind the port, the visual fidelity of and gameplay Doom Eternal on Switch will likely be similar to Doom and Wolfenstein

Doom Eternal _ , the next video game installment in the _Doom franchise, is coming to Nintendo Switch. Nintendo's relationship with Doom is relatively new. While the original Doom released on the Super Nintendo and a Doom exclusive was created for the Nintendo 64, the hellspawn franchise has been mostly absent from the House of Mario in recent years.

From the frenetic, "push forward" pacing of the combat to the much-coveted glory kill mechanic, all the elements are in place.

Enter Battle Mode, which pits two players as demons heads-to-head against another player rocking a fully kitted out Doom Slayer.

Doom Eternal coming to Switch isn't just emblematic of the strong working relationship between Bethesda and Nintendo, it also proves how much of a success the new console has been for the company and gaming in general. Following the release of its previous console, the Nintendo Wii U, Nintendo was in rough shape. However, the Nintendo Switch has done tremendous sales figures and is attracting third-party publishers even when it requires extra time (and money) to port their games to the Switch. Doom Eternal launching on the Switch makes it obvious this version is just as high a priority as any other console's p
