Development of Doom
The development of "Doom", a first-person shooter video game by id Software, began in November 1992 and continued until the game was released in December 1993. Seven people worked on "Doom", which is considered one of the most significant and influential titles in video game history. The initial development team was programmers John Carmack and John Romero, artists Adrian Carmack and Kevin Cloud, and designer Tom Hall; late in development Hall was replaced by Sandy Petersen and programmer Dave Taylor was added to the team. The music and sound effects were created by Bobby Prince.

Months after "Doom" was released, Zen Studios developed a virtual pinball adaptation of the game as part of the "Bethesda Pinball" collection, which became available as part of "Zen Pinball 2", "Pinball FX 2" and "Pinball FX 3", as well as a separate free-to-play app for iOS and Android mobile devices. At E3 2017 Bethesda announced "Doom VFR", a virtual reality adaptation of "Doom", compatible with the PlayStation VR and HTC Vive headsets.

The game was released on December 1, 2017.
