DOOM Eternal Switch Will Debut in December 2020

The time has come. Long have Nintendo Switch owners waited for a new DOOM to grace their systems, with teases suggesting it was on the way. Now, we have a DOOM Eternal Switch release date, and it is sooner than people might expect. People can download a copy on December 8, 2020.

As a reminder, downloading will be the only way to get DOOM Eternal on the Switch. After a bit of a scare, where people received messages saying pre-orders were canceled at GameStop, Bethesda confirmed that there would be no physical release for the FPS. You can only turn to the eShop for it.

But on the plus side, the Switch version’s release date trailer is here. People can get an idea of how the game looks on the system.

 

That’s not the only recent DOOM Eternal news. The DOOM Slayer is coming… in Nendoroid form. That won’t be out until June 2021, but people can place a pre-order for the character, which comes with a teeny Cacodemon, until January 2021.

The DOOM Eternal Nintendo Switch version will show up in the eShop on December 8, 2020. It is immediately available on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Google Stadia. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X versions are on the way.
