DOOM once again available on Xbox Live Arcade

Back in October of 2010, DOOM, which was originally published by Activision, was taken off of Xbox Live Arcade due to the content rights expiring. The game was apparently supposed to relaunch soon afterwards with Bethesda as the publisher since ZeniMax Media is also the parent company of id Software. Obviously the process took just a little longer than that.

But for those who were never able to grab the game when it was originally available on XBLA, you can finally do so, since as of today it is now available once again for 400 points.

Check that out right here: DOOM on XBLA

Read on for the official announcement.

We?re pleased to announce that DOOM, originally released in 1993 by id Software, will be available later today for download once again on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace worldwide.

Face off against Hell?s army as you experience the revolution of DOOM. Lay waste to hordes of demonic monsters with an arsenal of classic weapons including the infamous BFG 9000. Take the deathmatch online via LIVE and battle your friends for dominance of the leaderboards, or team-up with a friend in co-op.
