Summary

Limited Run Games and id Software have collaborated on the “Will It Run” Edition of Doom.
The bundle includes Doom and Doom 2, with a packaging box and a handheld Cacodemon that can run the game.
The Will It Run Edition is limited to 666 units and costs $666.66, available April 18, 2025.

The developer behind the timeless Doom franchise, id Software, has united with Limited Run Games to bring fans the jaw-dropping “Will It Run” Edition, and the bundle comes with impressive goodies, not to mention a box that can run the game itself. Doom has transcended its original, pioneering title in the FPS genre to become a full-blown media franchise, spanning eight main entries, a novel series, a comic book one-shot, and a few movie adaptations, including the 2005 cult classic with Karl Urban.

A bundle compiling Doom and Doom 2 together received a surprise drop last year, which brought cross-platform multiplayer and an in-game mod to run Doom’s predecessor titles. The 2023 SIGIL 2 campaign was recently added to the Doom and Doom 2 collection for free, crafted by original designer John Romero, joining the first SIGIL in the latest update. If this content bundle wasn’t enough, Limited Run Games will soon release the ultimate edition for hardcore fans.

Doom: The Dark Ages Game Directors Talk ‘Stand And Fight’ Approach to Combat

In a Game Rant interview, Doom: The Dark Ages’ game directors speak about how the title evolves the franchise while also respecting its roots.

Limited Run Games’ physical Will It Run Doom Edition includes the Doom and Doom 2 games with plenty of keepsake goodies, including a Cassette Tape Soundtrack Set, a floating Cacodemon, a trading card pack, and more. However, the real kicker of the release is the packaging box and the handheld Cacodemon, both of which can run Doom. Limited Run Games has become a staple seller in the video games industry, supplying beloved titles with stunning physical releases just for the fans, including a Tomb Raider Remastered physical edition that included Lara Croft’s guns.

The Will It Run Edition riffs off the hilarious trend of tech-savvy gamers getting Doom to run on pretty much any device, including the Nintendo Alarmo, a medical ultrasound scanner, a Samsung fridge, and more recently, a programmer got Doom running on the Google search bar. The Will It Run Edition will go on sale on Friday, April 18, 2025, at 10 am EDT, and cost an on-brand $666.66 with a limited 666 copies available.

The next installment in id Software’s run-and-gun series will be Doom: The Dark Ages, scheduled for a May 15, 2025, release. The eighth main installment in the franchise serves as a prequel to 2016’s Doom, carrying a medieval setting while showcasing the rise of the Doom Slayer. The campaign will focus on a single-player experience, and Doom: The Dark Ages’ creative director recently explained why the entry will not have multiplayer. Veteran fans can expect a shift to more grounded combat in The Dark Ages, paired with the protagonist’s slow-motion kills for extra flare.
