Doom and Animal Crossing were supposed to be out on the same day (Friday), but as a “safety precaution,” GameStop has made the move to sell id’s shooter a day early to avoid crowds.
The two games, once thought inseparable, will now release separately as a precautionary measure to adhere to the CDC’s guidelines on crowd sizes and social distancing.
