It’s becoming trendy to offer selfies as a feature in video games now. Just weeks after World of Warcraft added self-portraits through a new patch, the classic first-person-shooter Doom is getting the same treatment — albeit unofficially.
There’s a new mod for the game called “InstaDoom” that adds a selfie stick and 37 Instagram filters to the game, opening the door to some strange in-game photo ops.
The mod, created by a modder named Linguica, swaps the chainsaw and BFG weapons in the game for a selfie stick with a representation of your character on the other end.
With a filter (e.g. Valencia, Ashby, Lo-Fi, Mayfair, Rise, Inkwell, and more) applied to your view, all it takes is a quick screenshot to save an in-game selfie with the monsters you encounter.
The mod is available as a free download over at Doom World.

Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
