Freedoom: Phase 2

A complete free replacement for DOOM II: Hell on Earth — 32 levels featuring the devastating Super Shotgun. Compatible with thousands of community-made PWAD mods, all under the BSD license.

DOOM - Arcade PrBoom+ WebAssembly

About

Freedoom Phase 2 replaces DOOM II with 32 levels of original content — new sprites, textures, sounds, and music created entirely by the open source community. The Super Shotgun is included, along with all weapon and enemy equivalents from the original game.

Because it's a complete DOOM II replacement, Phase 2 is compatible with the vast library of community PWAD mods built for DOOM II over the past three decades. The Freedoom project provides three separate IWADs: Phase 1 (Ultimate DOOM), Phase 2 (DOOM II), and FreeDM (deathmatch). It runs on the PrBoom+ engine compiled to WebAssembly.

Gameplay Tips

  • Super Shotgun is king — Devastating at close range with a wide spread. Your go-to weapon for most encounters.
  • More open levels — Phase 2 levels are generally more open than Phase 1, with larger outdoor areas.
  • PWAD compatible — Works with community DOOM II mods — decades of free content at your fingertips.
  • Ammo management — Later levels get stingy with ammo. Manage your resources carefully.

Did You Know?

  • Phase 2 is compatible with DOOM II and Final Doom PWADs, giving you access to over 30 years of community-created content — thousands of level packs, total conversions, and gameplay mods.
  • The Freedoom project provides three separate IWADs sharing the same BSD-licensed asset pool: Phase 1, Phase 2, and FreeDM.
