Rumor: Beloved Nintendo 64 Exclusive Coming to Modern Consoles

Updated ESRB Ratings Hint at Imminent Doom 64 Release for PS5 and Xbox Series X

Recent updates to the ESRB ratings suggest a potential upcoming release of Doom 64 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles. While Bethesda and id Software remain officially silent, the updated ESRB listing strongly indicates a near-term launch.

The 1997 Nintendo 64 classic, Doom 64, received a remastered release for PS4 and Xbox One in 2020, featuring enhanced visuals and a new chapter. This enhanced version also launched on Steam. The new ESRB ratings, however, specifically list PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions, suggesting a next-gen port is in the works.

The timing of ESRB ratings often precedes official announcements by just a few months. This pattern is supported by past instances, such as the 2023 leak of Felix the Cat's re-release via an ESRB rating before Konami's official announcement.

While a PC version isn't explicitly mentioned in the updated rating, the precedent set by the 2020 release makes a PC port plausible. Furthermore, modding communities already offer ways to experience Doom 64-like gameplay in classic Doom titles.

Bethesda's history of surprise releases for older Doom titles adds another layer of anticipation. The lack of a formal announcement, coupled with the ESRB rating, hints at a potential stealth launch.

Looking beyond Doom 64, rumors point towards a 2025 release for Doom: The Dark Ages, with a potential announcement in January. Re-releasing classic titles like Doom 64 could serve as effective pre-release marketing for the upcoming installment in the franchise.
