Doom for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System was developed by Sculptured Software, Inc. (archived 🏛) It was released on September 1, 1995, near the end of the system's life cycle. The cartridge features a Super FX 2 chip, and was one of only three Super NES games to feature a colored cartridge, with the NTSC version being available in a red casing. The game does not use the Doom engine, but is instead powered by a custom engine programmed by Randy Linden called the Reality Engine. It was published by Williams Entertainment in North America and Europe, and by Imagineer in Japan. Distributor Ocean Software cooperated on the European release.

Doom for the Super Nintendo features 22 levels from the PC version. The status bar is rearranged, though it keeps the concrete theme of the PC version, featuring an image of the weapon currently held instead of the original ammo numbers. Unique to this port, the floors and ceilings lack texture mapping, with sectors being assigned two solid colors for the floor and ceiling out of a palette of 256 choices. The game lacks any back-up or password system, meaning that each episode must be finished from the beginning. A level, however, can be restarted if the player chooses the option while pausing the game. Restarting a level will keep all items collected from previous levels. Although the manual states otherwise, the game supports the Super NES mouse and the Super Scope light gun.[citation needed] Multiplayer was available through the XBAND network, although only deathmatch mode is available.
