Modder ‘gamehacker’ has released a new pre-beta version of Doom Reborn. Doom Reborn is a total conversion of the original Doom Series, aiming to remake the original Doom & Doom 2 in the id Tech 4 Engine.
Doom Reborn features new textures and new models of the original weapons and monsters. From what we can see, these models are from Doom 3. Moreover, this TC Mod features re-imagined maps that are as close to the original levels as possible.
Pre-Beta Version 1.65 features widescreen resolution support. Furthermore, it adjusts the lighting in every level, updates the appearance of the main menu, and adds new Easter eggs. Additionally, the modder enabled Parallax Occlusion Maping, and corrected a couple bugs along with various tweaks and changes.
In order to showcase this mod in action, gamehacker released the following video. Thus, we strongly suggest watching it as it will give you an idea of what you can expect from it.
You can download Doom Reborn Pre-Beta Version 1.65 from here.
Have fun!

Too mush headbob, and a lot of inconsistencies in the graphics, also who thought that using Doom 3 weapons would be great ? They feel and sound very weak, and those demons my god bring back the sprites !!
Basically “I disagree, so you’re an idiot” You missed a chance to be an actual adult with an adult behavior by stopping at your first sentence, but i’m not expecting too much from people playing tough guys on a keyboard and jerking off to a waifu all day long
Nope, no alt accounts, i didn’t even downvote your comment, it’s just people letting you know you were childish
“new game bad old game good basic mentality”
Sure, for a guy defending HL Alyx, Nier Automata, Just Cause 3, Prey 2017 and Control while sh*tting on the legendary 1st Deus Ex, i laughed at this one, i love both eras, but it’s not my fault if most AAAs in the past had a unique approach for their genre while now most AAAs are copy/paste of tired formulas, not to mention gaas design, obvious political agendas and MTs…
Pro tip : If i’m annoying to you block me, i don’t block people myself because i respect other opinions, if i disagree, i’d like to discuss about not call the next guy idiot
“What the hell are you even talking about?!”
You’re telling me that i systematically hate new games in favor of old ones, so i tried to clarifie things, i love both eras, and my love for the old school games doesn’t come at 100% from nostalgia, i love some game design ideas that disappeared over the time
“like valve was apparently doing with this game”
Some aspects of HLA are actually an upgrade to what HL on flascreen was, things like the physics and the interactivity have way more feedback, but that’s not the subject and i’m tired of speaking about this game
“JC3”
Yes I like an unpopular game, and i respect people that played it and hated it
“In fact i can only name vanquish”
Control is very Vanquish-like, people loved Vanquish because it doesn’t relie a lot on cover systems with boring hide and seek combats, and Control is somehow an evolution of the Vanquish formula, give it a try, it’s phenomenal
“Deus Ex 1 as well as SystemShock 2 are some of my fav games of all time”
I love System Shock 2, but Deus Ex felt lacking for me, flawed in many parts, and has a very big focus on stealth rather than doing what a good immersive sim is meant to do : make all the options viable
I enjoyed the story tho, and if i was this biased nostalgic guy you think i’m, i will not prefer DXHR and DXMD over DX1
“gaming these days has so much more options”
More options for consumption via different stores, hardware and peripherals yes, as for the AAA games themselves, i did not see real options and alternative until the past few years, some genres completely disappeared from the AAA market (RTS, top down RPGs, 3D platformers, Tactical Shooters…) and some of them became very rare (Stealth games, Management…) i have to go indy to encounter most of this games. Since GTA V almost all games tried to be this typical soulless open world, and all MP games are becoming casual trends rather then actual games, of course i’m not pessimistic either, like i said, there are some alternative that work good like Doom, RE2, Prey, MH World, DMC V, they don’t follow the default formula and are varied and created by actual creative devs, not just some yes men following what their publishers tell them to do
“old game was ALWAYS good and new game is ALWAYS bad”
Never said that, i challenge you to take a screen of any similar comment i made, my first statement in the my last comment is a proof, how i can enjoy JC3 and don’t enjoy DX1 if i’m just some biased nostalgic guy ?
“Hell i might’ve overreacted in my comment”
YES
“were not triple A games in their day and age”
They were, a 30m dollar game back then is a 300m dollar one now, but both are big productions
“bloated triple a industry back to something healthy again”
Here we’re starting to understand each other a little bit, yes this is bloated, and you can’t deny it, there are obviously things going on the right direction like we have better PC ports now, better licenced adaptations, indy game market, japanese games on PC, and the platform is more and more friendly and easier to use… But still the AAA industry needs a kick in the azz
“the best way to deal with it is ignoring triple a as best as you can”
That’s what nearly everyone is doing in this site, that doesn’t mean we have to shut up, if i dislike something, i’ll say it, if i like it i’ll say it too, that’s why comment sections exist
wtf is wrong with HL Alyx, Nier Automata, Just Cause 3, Prey 2017 and Control???
Stop being a sensitive f_ggot. People are allowed to criticize what they don’t like.
Oh wow the alt accounts are real, hm?! Guess it was the right chice to say my piece finally, lol.
Ultimate Doom > Any attempt to remake Doom in any other version of Idtech besides maybe Brutal Doom which is still idtech1 anyway.
Idtech3 is trash and should never be used ever again.
Also that’s the worst version of E1M1 I’ve ever heard. Why use that when you have superiority like IDKFA.
But it’s cool that they’re doing it, more power to them.
I agree for all what you said but i think there’s a typo on idtech3 you meant 4 i guess
Don’t mince words, tell us how you really feel!
Needs a bit more work, add ray tracing, VR mode, then we might have something.
wow this is pure garbage… sad, and this is further proof that not everything needs to be remade in 3D, specially if not done with talent and actual artistic skills. This is less than an amateur mashup of stuff, doesnt work AT ALL.
if they put textures of real actors in the enemies, this can look like a FMV game or very similar to Rise of the triad
