From Activision:
Co-developed by id Software and Nerve Software, this stand-alone extension of
the DOOM 3 saga features a new storyline encompassing never before seen

Shotgun and the physics defying Grabber, and the power to control time.
Additionally, DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil turns up the multiplayer carnage with
a number of new maps and also includes bonus content complete with id classics,
DOOM II and Master Levels for DOOM II. DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil is available
at retail outlets nationwide for a suggested retail price of $29.99 and carries
an “M” (Mature) rating by the ESRB.
“Xbox owners can get a fresh dose of Hell with DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil,”
said Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software. “We’re turning up the heat by arming
you with incredible new weapons and powers for an all-out battle with the
Hunters – a new breed of demons Hell-bent on killing you.”
DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil picks up two years following the events of the
original DOOM 3 in a once forgotten and remote UAC research facility on Mars –
the site of the first battle with Dr. Bertrugar and his acolytes from Hell.
Investigating the ruins, players uncover an ancient artifact that holds
unspeakable power. However, this artifact belongs to Hell, and Bertrugar and his
demons will stop at nothing to take it back home.
For multiplayer fans, DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil also features more online
action with new multiplayer maps for up to four players in the following game
types: Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Last Man Standing and Tournament mode via
System Link or Xbox Live.
As an added bonus, DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil for Xbox also includes
complete versions of DOOM II and Master Levels for DOOM II specifically
optimized for the Xbox. These classics include their original single player
campaigns as well as 2-4 player Co-Op or Deathmatch via split-screen on one Xbox
or on multiple systems via System Link.
