John Romero releases new Doom II map to "support the Ukrainian people"

[Ohio Joe]

In a surprise treat for '90s first-person shooter fans, Doom series co-creator John Romero emerged this week with a brand-new map for the 1994 classic Doom II. While it's priced somewhat high for this kind of content—€5 for a single old-school map—there's a good reason.

Romero makes clear in the release's template file that this WAD's sale is intended to "raise funds to support the Ukrainian people." It can be purchased at his personal shop site, where he says all proceeds will go toward two humanitarian organizations: the Ukrainian Red Cross and the UN Central Emergency Response Fund. (On the non-charity front, Romero's store also sells a bunch of Doom-era goodies.)

DOOM is an all around fun FPS. Especially the heavy metal music in the newer games
