Victor Luchitz has announced on X the release of Doom 32X Resurrection version 3.3a, featuring a range of enhancements inherited from the Fusion version of the engine.
- High-resolution weapon sprites
- Unified colour palette
- Per-episode intermission screens
- Composite textures
- A sound cue that plays upon discovering secret areas
- Low-detail mode for flats
- A revamped status bar
- Corrected movement speeds for the Cacodemon, Baron, and BFG projectiles
- Memory optimizations
The memory optimizations and composite textures, together with a new compressed map format, freed up 1 MB of ROM space compared to the previous release. As a result, the game no longer requires the SSF mapper and now runs seamlessly across a wider range of flashcarts and emulators.

As with previous releases, the ROM is not region-locked and supports both PAL and NTSC formats. You can also run this rom on most ROM carts, including the Open Everdrive – You’ll just need to reset to save your game, then power cycle, as the restart after reset won’t work right for this game – No big deal. Other Everdrives should work fine, with no extra interaction required.
