Doom is going to run on the RIVES (RISC-V Verifiable Entertainment System), an onchain gaming console built on Cartesi, a modular blockchain protocol.

RIVES is designed to run games and apps entirely onchain, enabling every element—from gameplay to interactions—to be fully verifiable. This means it enables provable scores, interactions, and progressions in games like speedruns, all recorded on the blockchain.
