The making of an impossible port

GN Version 5.0

I've said a few times now that I believe DOOM Eternal to be the most impressive port for the Switch. Technically the game isn't a port, as a Switch version of the game was planned from day one with the other versions. Still though, a ton of work and special tweaks had to go into making it work on Switch. The end result was seriously impressive, and that's thanks to the work and direction of both id Software and Panic Button. You can hear how they managed to pull off this massive achievement in the video above.
