Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb has made it known that Nerve Software's version of the id classic DOOM II will be available through Xbox LIVE Arcade this Wednesday.

Nerve's port will include every level from the original game, plus a brand new episode created by them. There's also four-player splitscreen offline multiplayer and online multiplayer functionality to look forward to.

The XBLA port of the first DOOM was done by Nerve as well, so the project should be in decent hands.

We've contacted Nerve for confirmation of DOOM II's price, but in the meantime it's worth noting that the first XBLA DOOM originally cost 800 MS Points ($10.00 USD) - before being lowered to 400 MS Points.
