Doom co-creator John Romero is making a new FPS game

John Romero, one of the lead creators of the FPS game Doom, is making a new first-person shooter game with his studio, Romero Games. This game will be made with Unreal Engine 5, meaning it will be a new high-quality game.

In a tweet announcing the new game, the Doom co-creator also mentioned that his team is looking to hire new talented people, especially those who are experienced with Unreal Engine 5.

“It’s a new dawn for Romero Games. We’re working with a major publisher to develop John Romero’s next shooter: an all-new FPS with an original, new IP,” says Romero on Twitter. “Our team is expanding, and we’re looking for talented people for all positions and at all experience levels, particularly those with Unreal Engine 5 experience.”
