DOOM Collection Brings Nine Classic Shooter Experiences to Evercade on a Distinctive Red Cartridge
Blaze Entertainment and id Software release DOOM Collection on Evercade in a red cartridge shell containing DOOM, DOOM II, SIGIL I & II, TNT, Plutonia and multiplayer.
Hell has found another portable destination as Blaze Entertainment launches its scheduled DOOM Collection release for the Evercade family on October 30, 2026. Developed in cooperation with id Software, the collection packages the original DOOM and DOOM II alongside a substantial assortment of additional campaigns and multiplayer content. The cartridge is priced at £24.99, $29.99 or €29.99 and arrives in a distinctive red shell rather than the blue casing normally associated with Evercade's home-computer collection. Its contents include DOOM, DOOM II, TNT: Evilution, The Plutonia Experiment, Master Levels for DOOM II, No Rest for the Living, SIGIL and SIGIL II. A dedicated DOOM Deathmatch Pack provides additional multiplayer arenas. Blaze describes the package as two main games accompanied by seven additional content packs, rather than nine entirely separate standalone games. The collection uses native ports developed specifically for Evercade hardware instead of simply emulating existing console conversions. Additional features include revised gameplay options, adjustable violence settings and multiplayer support, with some modes accommodating up to four participants. The cartridge is intended to operate across the Evercade hardware family and compatible HyperMegaTech Super Pocket devices, although individual features and multiplayer arrangements depend on the hardware being used. The release also accompanies a limited DOOM Edition Evercade Nexus, restricted to 3000 units worldwide. That collector's package includes themed hardware, a protective case, commemorative accessories, a comic and the DOOM cartridge itself. Its original preorder allocation sold out before launch, but the standard cartridge is not similarly limited. More than three decades after DOOM transformed PC gaming, its continuing arrival on new hardware remains remarkable. At this point, the only electronic device that has not attempted to run DOOM is probably somebody's electric toothbrush. Give the developers another weekend.
