Doom 64 rated by Australian classification board

The Australian classification board has rated Doom 64 for release on multiple unspecified platforms from publisher Bethesda.

On August 30 the title was classified Mature, meaning it’s not recommended for children under the age of 15.

Doom 64 originally launched exclusively for Nintendo 64 in 1997, published by Midway Games.

European classification body PEGI also reportedly rated Doom 64 for release on PC and PlayStation 4 in July.

The PEGI classification was spotted around the same time Bethesda announced surprise releases for the original Doom, Doom 2 and Doom 3 on consoles and mobile devices.

The launches coincided with the QuakeCon 2019 convention, which had a heavy Doom focus to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the influential shooter series.

The latest Doom instalment, Doom Eternal, will release on November 22, 2019 for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch and Stadia.

Doom Eternal is available to pre-order at Amazon, Best Buy and Game, among other retailers.
