What better way to help out during a crisis than to play some video games? At least, that's what legendary game developer John Romero is banking on. Romero has released a brand new level for Doom II for sale, with all proceeds going to the Red Cross and the UN Central Emergency Response Fund to assist their humanitarian efforts.

So, what is One Humanity, and where can you buy and download this new Doom II level?

A Brand New Doom II Level! How Do You Play It?

One Humanity becomes Doom II's first new level since the game launched back in 1994. Just shy of 18 years since the release of the original title, developer John Romero has released the brand new level, titled One Humanity, in an effort to boost donations to the Red Cross and the UN Central Emergency Response Fund in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

To play One Humanity, you'll need "an original copy of DOOM II and a modern source port," plus five bucks to pay for the .WAD file (the actual new level file). Once you buy the new level, you'll receive a download link that you can use three times. After downloading One Humanity, you'll need to import it into Doom II, where you can get stuck into those pesky demons.

By all accounts, One Humanity is a classic Romero Doom map, full of secrets, traps, demons, and much more. It's certainly a blast from the past!

The Doom Map Making and Modding Scene Is Going Strong

Despite the original Doom launching in 1993, and Doom II launching in 1994, the custom map-making and modding scene of both games is vibrant, filled with people who remember the games launching, and those stepping into Doomguy's shoes for the first time.

The prospect of a brand new Romero-designed level is sure to capture the imagination, and with proceeds going towards humanitarian causes, you can feel good while slaying those demons from Hell.
