Id Software has recently announced that it will be simplifying its store listings and their DOOM games will be bundled up.
The studio has now decided to make its game library on Steam to be more simple rather than its usual confusing default listing. Starting on August 10, 2022, there will be changes to the Steam Store listings for select id Software games. They will now consolidate each game under one major title in order to make it simpler for the shoppers.
There is a list the developers made for their upcoming changes and it might delist some games. Do not worry though, they assured fans that they will still have the game in the library to download and play like always.
DOOM (1993)
We will be changing the name of Ultimate DOOM in the Steam Store to DOOM (1993). No other major changes are being made at this time.
DOOM II
DOOM II will include Final DOOM and Master Levels as one install package. Each can be launched separately as follows:
- DOOM II
- DOOM II (Enhanced)
- Master Levels for DOOM II
- Final DOOM
DOOM 3
DOOM 3 will be merged into a package containing the original DOOM 3 plus the Resurrection of Evil expansion and DOOM 3: BFG Edition. The package allows each version to be installed separately as follows:

NOTE: Players that already own DOOM 3 or DOOM 3: BFG Edition on Steam will be upgraded to the DOOM 3 consolidated package with all three releases for free!
