Doom CD32X Fusion is the first non-FMV game to utilize Sega's Tower of Power add-on for the Genesis/Mega Drive. It is a significant update to the previous Doom 32X Resurrection project, incorporating features like:

- Ports of Ultimate Doom and Doom II, with over 100 total levels
- 96 FM audio tracks, some ported and some newly created
- Support for CD-ROM loaded content like maps, sounds, music, and additional textures
- High-resolution weapon sprites, mid-texture support, and other visual enhancements
- The ability to create and burn your own custom WAD files to CD
- Multiple screen resolutions and control scheme options

This release marks an important milestone, as previous Sega CD32X games were limited to FMV titles. Doom CD32X Fusion fully leverages the system's hardware capabilities to deliver an enhanced Doom experience for fans.

You can download the mod now from Doomworld. You will need legal copies of Ultimate Doom and Doom 2, the complete Tower of Power setup (Mega Drive/Genesis + SegaCD + 32X), a flash cart, and a CD-R (to burn the ISO image). Emulation is also an option, with the dev team recommending Ares as the emulator of choice.
