The collection will include: Doom, Doom 2, Doom 3, Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil. Doom 3 will also include a new level with seven new levels, a new boss and up to three hours of content.

Doom 3 is also getting a face lift. With updated visuals, 3D support, and a new control scheme for consoles.

As part of the new control scheme, gamers will finally be able to use the flashlight and gun at the same time in Doom 3. The original game requires gamers to switch between their flashlight and gun when ported to console. A design choice that most gamers hated. Other complaints from gamers such as too-dark levels and difficulty have also been addressed for accessibility.
