Doom II release party

The Doom II release party, also called the Doomsday party, was an event held at The Limelight night club in New York City on October 10, 1994, the official release date of Doom II (though the game had become generally available as of September 30). Invitations were open to a limited number of adult members of the public from September 23 until September 28 at midnight. The event was id Software's first official release party.

The event included a Doom II deathmatch tournament, with four-player matches in the Deathmatch 2.0 game mode. Awards were given, including a series of golden medals.
