DOOM Eternal pushed back to March 20, 2020
Bethsoft is sending around noticed that they are delaying DOOM Eternal, and in fact, the release has been pushed back to March 20, 2020
A message from id Software on the DOOM Eternal release date:
Throughout the development of DOOM Eternal, our goal has been to deliver a game that exceeds your greatest expectations across the board. To make sure we’re delivering the best experience -- for DOOM Eternal to live up to our standards of speed and polish -- we’ve made the decision to extend our launch date by a few months to March 20, 2020. We know many fans will be disappointed by this delay, but we are confident that DOOM Eternal will deliver a gaming experience that is worth the wait.
In addition to shifting the DOOM Eternal launch date, we’ve made a couple other changes we wanted you to know about:
- Invasion Mode, which will allow you to enter another player’s game as a playable demon, will release as a free update shortly after launch.
- DOOM Eternal for Nintendo Switch will release after the other platforms. We will announce that date in the future.
- DOOM 64 will be available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC in addition to Nintendo Switch. We are adding DOOM 64 as a pre-order bonus for DOOM Eternal on all platforms so you’ll be able to download and play this classic game, for free, just for pre-ordering DOOM Eternal. DOOM 64 will be released on March 20, 2020 on all platforms.
We are grateful to every DOOM fan for your dedication and support - we can’t wait to rip-and-tear right alongside you.

Well, bummer, only thing I have left for 2019 to look forward to now is RDR2 for PC.

One's got to love how people are turning normal topics into SJW stuff so they can make sarcastic jokes about SJW stuff because they don't like it... then don't bring it up guys. It's kind of getting boring and annoying.
Other than that I have to agree with other gurus, as long as it's good, a delay is acceptable. Coming from times when this was actually not too uncommon.

Must be because of raytracing, even tho i don't have an rtx gpu i'm excited to see how it will look and how optimised it will be.
Considering how well doom 2016 runs , i think it'll be worth the delay.
