Doom alpha invites are going out today

The first alpha test starts Friday

Curious about how the new Doom looks and feels? If you’re signed up for the beta (redeemable codes were included with early copies of Wolfenstein: The New Order), you may find out soon.

Bethesda is now invites for this weekend’s multiplayer alpha test, which runs from Friday, October 23 at 12:00am Eastern to Sunday, October 25 at 11:59pm on Steam, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. Participants were chosen from the aforementioned beta pool.

In this alpha, players will get to fight each other six versus six on the industrial map Heatwave. There’s a single Demon Rune that can turn its collector into a Revenant and a one-hit-kill power weapon, the Gauss Cannon, for retaliation. Read up on the full equipment list .
