The announcement from Limited Run Games can be found embedded below.

For those interested, the special edition of DOOM: The Classics Collection will include a SteelBook, a metal Keycard replica, a PVC keychain of a Marine helmet, 9″ x 6″ art prints of each of the covers for the games, a reprint of the 1996 DOOM comic, and an 8GB floppy disc. All of these items will also appear in the collector’s edition, alongside a DOOM shadowbox. The shadowbox features lights and sounds from the games.

For DOOM fans, this certainly seems like an awesome collection! All three of these games are currently available digitally on Switch and PS4, but this will give fans a chance to own them in a physical format. The future of franchises like DOOM on platforms outside of Xbox remains in question following the purchase of Bethesda by Microsoft, so fans concerned about being able to play these games on Switch and PS4 in the future might want to grab this compilation while it’s available!

For those unfamiliar with Limited Run Games, the company publishes officially-licensed physical releases for games that previously received digital versions. The company’s philosophy is “physical is forever,” as digital games can be removed from storefronts. The games and their accompanying items are made to order, so the actual release date for the compilation will come a few months after pre-orders close.
