QUAKECON: Doom 4 Confirmed

Today during John Carmack’s keynote for QuakeCon 2012, he confirmed that Doom 4 is well underway and is id Software’s current focus. He also continued to say that after Doom 3 BFG Edition is released, the company will be dedicated to making Doom 4 the next “AAA title”. He also made a point of saying, much to his dismay, that id Software’s mobile development division has been closed to focus on the new title. The game will use the id Tech 5 engine, the same engine that powers id’s Rage. During the keynote, Carmack apologized for the PC release of Rage and said that he and id are doing their best to make sure the PC release for Doom 4 is done properly.
