Bethesda has released a new live-action trailer for its upcoming shooter Doom. Set to Refused's "New Noise," the video was directed by Tron: Legacy and Oblivion director Joe Kosinski.

It aims to capture the essence of Doom's three core pillars: combat, demons, and big guns. Check it out:

This isn't Kosinski's first video game trailer, as he also directed the epic Destiny live-action video that featured Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song."
