Blaze Teases “DOOM x Evercade” Collaboration

Evercade’s tiny cartridge‑driven console is about to get a lot louder—think demon‑infested corridors instead of chiptune bleeps. Blaze just dropped a teaser for a “DOOM × Evercade” collab, marking id Software’s 35th anniversary with a promise that the classic shooter will finally live on the handheld’s retro‑friendly hardware.
What’s likely to hit the cart? Expect the full ’90s lineup: Doom, Doom II, Ultimate Doom, Final Doom—and maybe even Doom 64 if you’ve been good. Blaze says they’ll sprinkle in modern comforts like save support and controller remapping, but keep the core feel intact. No word yet on extra packs (Master Levels, anyone?), so we’ll have to wait for a “Sigil” add‑on.
Why it matters: Evercade has already scooped titles from Activision, Atari, and now Bethesda. Adding Doom turns this quirky little system into a pocket‑sized museum of gaming heavyweights—perfect for collectors who want big‑name bangers without the bulk.
Bottom line? If you’ve ever wanted to blast demons on a handheld that fits in your pocket, keep an eye on Blaze’s updates later this year. The hype is real; the next question on everyone’s lips is: Quake, anyone?
