Celebrate Release Day With Animal Crossing Characters Playing Doom Music

The day has finally come - both Doom Eternal and Animal Crossing: New Horizons have been released, and we've now got an imaginary concert to celebrate at. On Twitter, Andrei Mishanin released DOOMANIMAL, a short, sweet, and savage CG imagining of what it might look like if various Animal Crossing villagers were to play a cut from Mick Gordon's incredible Doom soundtrack. Short answer: extremely bloody good.

thank you

As you can see above, the Doom community managers are certainly happy with the video. Animal Crossing's developers recently told us they've been loving the Doom-Animal Crossing crossovers, so they're likely pleased too. If you've missed the recent community love-in, both fans and developers alike have been making crossover content that features the Doomslayer hanging out with AC favourite Isabelle. Even our homepage has been getting in on the action: [caption id="attachment_2323062" align="alignnone" width="1253"] The IGN homepage on March 20, 2020.[/caption] Both games certainly live up to the hype - we awarded each one a 9/10, saying Animal Crossing: New Horizons is "an expanded, polished, next-generation reboot of a classic Nintendo game" and that Doom Eternal features "one of the best first-person shooter campaigns in years."
