Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil
2005 first-person shooter video game developed by Nerve Software
Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil is a 2005 first-person shooter game developed by Nerve Software and published by Activision. An expansion pack and sequel to Doom 3, it was released for Microsoft Windows on April 4, 2005, and for Xbox on October 5, 2005. The Xbox version does not require the original Doom 3 in order to play and includes The Ultimate Doom, Doom II: Hell on Earth and Master Levels for Doom II. A remastered version of Resurrection of Evil was included with Doom 3: BFG Edition.
The game features eight multiplayer game modes. It features twelve new single-player levels, six new enemies including the Hunter, four new multiplayer maps, and new weapons such as the double-barreled shotgun originating from Doom II.
Online multiplayer was available until the termination of Xbox Live on April 15, 2010. Resurrection of Evil is playable online again on the replacement online servers for the Xbox called Insignia.
Gameplay
Resurrection of Evil adds two new main features to the gameplay that the player can use throughout the game. The first is a tool that was originally developed for Doom 3: the "Grabber". Like the "Gravity Gun" from Half-Life 2, the Grabber is a physics-based weapon that allows the player to pick up and move certain items. It also allows the player to catch fireballs and throw them back at the enemy.
