Counter-Strike received a major technology update and refresh on November 1, 2004 with the release of Counter-Strike: Source, which was heavily updated using Valve's Source game engine to take advantage of more modern graphics and audio hardware.

The series started to lose mainstream appeal as the technology of the Doom game engine was surpassed in the mid-1990s, although fans have continued making WADs, speedruns, and modifications to the original.

The game is neither a sequel to Doom 3 nor a new beginning of the franchise and it will use the company's new id Tech 5 engine.

The development of Doom started in 1992, when John D. Carmack developed a new 3D game engine, the Doom engine, while the rest of the id Software team finished the Wolfenstein 3D prequel, Spear of Destiny.

The advance from id Software's previous game Wolfenstein 3D was enabled by several new features in the Doom engine:

The popularity of Doom led to the development of a sequel, Doom II: Hell on Earth ( 1994 ), as well as expansion packs and alternate versions based on the same game engine, including The Ultimate Doom ( 1995 ), Final Doom ( 1996 ), and Doom 64 ( 1997 ).

The game engine was licensed to several other companies as well, who released their own games based on it, including Heretic, Hexen, Strife and HacX.

When, three years later, 3D Realms released Duke Nukem 3D, a tongue-in-cheek science fiction shooter based on Ken Silverman's technologically similar Build engine, id Software had nearly finished Quake, its next-generation game, which mirrored Dooms success for the remainder of the 1990s and significantly reduced interest in its predecessor.

In late 2009, Bandai created a webpage in Japanese showing a new game to be released in 2010 called Digimon Story: Lost Evolution, which uses the same engine as their predecessors Digimon World DS and Digimon World Dawn and Dusk and was released on July 1, 2010.

While the game engine itself remained relatively similar between all games in the series, the interface went through many changes.

Using a modified Quake engine, it featured single-player and multiplayer game modes, as well as four character classes to choose from, each with different abilities.

It also introduced minor enhancements to the game engine, mostly related to user interface, level scripts, particle effects ( rain or snow ), and 3D objects.

Using a modified id Tech 2 engine, the game features a mix of a third-person camera with a first-person shooter's action, making for a new gaming experience at the time.

This is the only Heretic / Hexen video game that is unrelated to id Software, apart from its role as engine licenser.

Starting with their first shareware game series, Commander Keen, Id Software has licensed the core source code for the game, or what is more commonly known as the engine.

One of the nights, Id Software put together an impromptu game known as " Wac-Man " to demonstrate not only the technical prowess of the Keen engine, but also how it worked internally.

Id Software has developed their own game engine for each of their titles when moving to the next technological milestone, including Commander Keen, Wolfenstein 3D, Shadowcaster, DOOM, Quake, Quake II, and Quake III, as well as technology used in making Doom 3.

According to Eurogamer. net, " Id Software has been synonymous with PC game engines since the concept of a detached game engine was first popularised ".

John Carmack stated, at QuakeCon 2007, that the Id Tech 5 engine would be used for a new Quake game.

In the Haunted Mansion was powered by the same engine as the earlier Id Software game Shadow Knights, which was one of the several games written by Id Software to fulfill their contractual obligation to produce games for Softdisk, where the Id Software founders formerly were employed.
