id Software, the renowned developer behind the DOOM series, has been in the spotlight following the recent Xbox layoffs. However, in a recent livestream, DOOM director Hugo Martin has alleviated concerns about the studio's future, stating that they have the necessary crew to build games and tech that they're known for.

According to Martin, the id Tech engine, which has been the backbone of many of their games, is still 'very much alive and well'. This reassurance comes after reports that the company had been severely impacted by the layoffs, which Martin has deemed incorrect.
