The series again remained dormant for 10 years until a remake, simply titled "Doom" and running on the new id Tech 6, was announced with a beta access to players that had pre-ordered "". The game held its closed alpha multiplayer testing in October 2015, as closed and open beta access ran during March to April 2016. Returning to the series' roots in fast-paced action and minimal storytelling, the full game eventually released worldwide on May 13, 2016. The project initially started as "Doom 4" in May 2008, set to be a remake of "Doom II: Hell on Earth" and ditching the survival horror aspect of "Doom 3". Development completely restarted as id's Tim Willits remarked that "Doom 4" was "lacking the personality of the long-running shooter franchise".
