Developer GEC.inc has announced that it has ported the long-lost Doom 2 RPG to PC. Originally released for iPhone and iPod Touch back in early 2010, the game has been lost to time for quite some time. The PC version of Doom 2 RPG features a custom control scheme to make the transition from its touchscreen roots to modern keyboard and mouse setups easier.

Doom 2 RPG, and its predecessor, Doom RPG, are unique entries in the DOOM franchise for forgoing fast-paced first-person action combat to instead feature a turn-based combat system akin to classic first-person dungeon crawling games.

The events of Doom 2 RPG take place a year before the events of the original DOOM 2. Its story focuses on two space marines and a scientist who are investigating a research facility that has been infested by demons on the Earth’s moon.

If you want to try out Doom 2 RPG, you’ll have to get your hands on the original “Doom 2 RPG.ipa” file, which can be picked up from the Web Archive’s software section. The game also needs OpenAL files, which can be picked up from the official website.

Doom 2 RPG at last. Yes Doom 2 RPG finally on PC as promised years ago come true today.
