If you were wondering if there was going to be any news about id's next major Doom game (also known as Doom IV) you are going to have to wait at least one more year. During id Software's QuakeCon press conference today, id's head man Todd Hollenshead stated that the developer is still not ready to chat about the game yet . . . but hinted strongly that they will finally reveal some info at QuakeCon 2010 next year.

During the keynote speech by id's master programmer John Carmack following the press conference, Carmack gave the smallest of hints about the game, saying the next Doom title is the first game they have worked on since Doom II that they didn't have to create new technology. The game will share the same id Tech 5 graphics engne with id's next game Rage.
