Id Software ‘Project 2021A’ and ‘Project 2021B’ rated in Australia

Id Software appears to be up to something. This year, the studio has submitted two projects to the Australian Classification Board, one known as Project 2021A and another known as Project 2021B, with neither appearing to be tied to Doom. 

Id Software's Project 2021A was discovered earlier this year and as PCGamer points out, it has been classified as 18+ for “high impact violence” and is listed as a virtual reality game, an area that the studio has explored in the past with DOOM VFR.

The next listing, known as Project 2021B, is rated M for violence and online interactivity. This particular game is set to be a multiplatform title, developed by id Software and published by ZeniMax Europe.

Neither game has been officially announced and with just six months left in the year, we're not sure if either project will be announced or release in 2021. One of the theories gaining traction is that this could have something to do with Quake, as the 25th anniversary of Quake 2 is coming up next year.

KitGuru Says: Id Software has made some of my favourite shooters of all time, so whatever these two projects end up being, I'm looking forward to them. What do you hope to see next from id Software?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
