Video Game ‘Fort Solis’ Inks Deal for Film and TV Adaptations

It’s the 30th anniversary of Doom, and designer John Romero has given fans a treat in the form of SIGIL II. The sequel to Romero’s free 2019 original, the sequel is touted as the unofficial sixth episode for the original Doom, and sports nine new levels, eight new multiplayer arenas, a new soundtrack by James Paddock, and more. And yes, just in case you’re unsure, SIGIL II is also free to download. You just need a registered version of Doom to play it.

And much like the original release of SIGIL, Romero has put together a physical big box edition of SIGIL II for the collectors. All boxes can be autographed, if you so choose, with the autographs under the shrink wrap. Signed then sealed.

So, just what do you get? There are three variants available, depending on your level of nostalgia. You can either get SIGIL II on USB, USB + signed 3.5″ floppy, or USB + signed 3.5″ + signed 5.25″ floppy. On top of that, you get the following:

Custom SIGIL II Big Box Shotgun Shell USB Edition:

• Custom SIGIL II Big Box

• SIGIL II cover poster (A3)

• Romero Games full-size cinch bag

• Sticker sheet with five stickers

• Shotgun glitter sticker

• SIGIL II disk pin

• SIGIL II Gates of Hell heavy superpin

• Extra code for full SIGIL II WAD with music via email

• Shotgun Shell USB

  • SIGIL II nine-level WAD

  • Making of SIGIL II video

  • Making of SIGIL II story by David L Craddock

  • SIGIL II original soundtrack by THORR

  • Readme.txt

If you want to go all out, the USB + signed 3.5″ + signed 5.25″ floppy edition also includes a SIGIL II logo t-shirt, which thankfully you can specify the size. And for those who are curious, Romero still has a few SIGIL big boxes left over from years back, so you can also grab one of those, if you so choose.

And, as an extra special treat, John Romero got together with fellow id Software alumni John Carmack and author David L. Craddock for an hour-long discussion on Doom for its 30th anniversary.
