Gengar78: Hopefully it will work with normal ZDoom for me :D.
It will be a standard WAD file so any port goes. The only pre-requisite is that it is a limit removing port (that means anything but the most hardcore vanilla ports).

Thanks! I was wondering 'cause the site said to use gzdoom.

Any day now...

UPDATE April 7, 2019: Due to a delay in physical production of some of SIGIL's pieces, fan boxes will ship in the first week of May. The free megawad will be made available one week after fan boxes begin shipping so paying customers can play SIGIL first.

UPDATE May 11, 2019: SIGIL has been done for quite a while at this point. There were two production issues at Limited Run -- the head and the disk. The head is now heading through production.

All units are crafted and finished by an individual artist. The second is the disk which is expected in shortly. There was also an issue with that. These are beyond the control of Romero Games, and we desperately wish that we could release it right now. We regret the delay, and have expressed your frustration to Limited Run.

We have also asked them to regularly update people who have purchased the game as this is also beyond the control of Romero Games. They have that list.

We’re sorry. We want SIGIL in your hands more than you know. We have to wait until Beast Box players get it before we release the free version. For their part, Limited Run isn’t happy with the delays either, and looks forward to releasing the game.

The Limited Run team has been doing everything it can to resolve the delays and are as frustrated as we are. We all want the game in our hands. The delays are due to making these items higher quality, because we and Limited Run believe you deserve the best possible product. They could have accepted earlier revisions and shipped an inferior product, but we both believe that you deserve better.

Limited Run will be in contact with an email update soon - until then, thanks for your patience!

At least it seems like it's heading forward... somehow.

No problem. I've waited 26 years for Doom 1 Episode 5. I can wait another few weeks :-)

In the 90s school shooters were cranking out WAD files in days. Cut to 2019 and John Romero himself somehow needs 2 years. Damn, these SIGIL WADs must be amazing.

I suspect he could have done it in a lot less time. Most likely he's out of practice, the standards are higher and for most of that time he wasn't constrained by arbitrary release dates.

Also keep in mind that there's been decades worth of maps made by rather enterprising map makers working on it as a hobby and I doubt that the maps that shipped with the game would have shipped with all the years of experience of players actually playing the game.

Then again, he might have just been really picky about minor details that nobody cares about or working on it in his spare time.

Does it have any more weapons or enemies? My biggest problem with Doom wads is that no matter how good they are, you're still fighting the same old enemies with the same old weapons.

Idk about SIGIL but there are many wads with new (or modified) enemies and weapons.

UPDATE May 22, 2019: The SIGIL Megawad IS SHIPPING! Look for your email notification from Limited Run Games.

Got some amazing news from @LimitedRunGames today! Have a look. All the artifacts are on their way to Limited Run and packaging for SIGIL is imminent. It looks amazing! We're thrilled with how it turned out.

And have a look inside...

The printing on the shirt is direct-to-garment and has incredible detail.

Version 666, of course. The coin is endorsed by Satan himself.

It's all packed securely for its trip to you. Thanks again for your continued support.

It looks basically like a map pack, so you can probably combine it with mods like Brutal Doom, MetaDoom, Guncaster. etc. If you're bored of the normal enemies and weapons there's a plethora of mods that can remedy that. I'd suggest checking ICARUSLIV3S , a youtuber who mostly checks out various Doom mods.

Now all I need to know is to how to combine new OST with SIGIL megawad when it arrives.
