Doom Returns To Xbox Live Arcade

by Jim Reilly on Jan 18, 2012 at 05:51 AM

After a three month hiatus, Bethesda today said the classic first-person shooter Doom is now available for download again on Xbox Live Arcade.

In October 2011, Doom was pulled from the Marketplace store and no explanation was ever given. One theory is that Doom on Xbox Live was originally published by Activision prior to Bethesda Softworks' parent company Zenimax Media acquiring id Software and was causing a legal issue that has since been resolved.

Regardless, the game is back on sale for 400 Microsoft Points.
