DOOM 3 source code to be released by id for free
DOOM 3 to follow in Return to Castle Wolfenstein's footsteps
John Carmack has announced that id will be releasing the source code for DOOM 3 for fre later this year.
Id Software has a history of releasing the source code of their titles once they become obsolete to let the modding and indie development community get their hands on them and DOOM 3 will be the first title they make public as part of Zenimax.
Carmack also urged other developers, when he made the announcement at this year's QuakeCon, to make similar moves in the hope that the source code will allow new developers to better learn their trade.
The DOOM 3 source code will be released some time after Rage debuts this October on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.
