A concept trailer for Doom 4 has revealed the original direction Id Software was going before choosing to reboot the franchise...
— which has since been taken down — by Id Software video editor and media artist Danny Keys, showing the original direction of the game. The trailer above shows that Doom had a much darker theme to it in 2012, with a bleak mix of grey and black colour styles and more horror-focused demons akin to Doom 3. A number of elements found in the game we finally received can easily be seen amongst the generic shooter action in the trailer, such as the weapon animations and the chainsaw glory kill.
Doom's development was a rocky one, to say the least. It was initially announced as Doom 4 in 2008, although Id Software's co-founder and lead developer John Carmack had alluded to it in 2007, and by 2009 it was in deep development. By 2012, though, which is when this trailer looks to have been made, Id Software announced that it would instead be a reboot of the franchise.
What do you think of the trailer? Would you have preferred to see Doom 4 in that style? Drop down below and let us know!
