Get ready to transform your robotic lawnmower into a gaming powerhouse with the latest software update. Starting this April, owners of Husqvarna Automower NERA models can dive into the dark and intense world of the iconic 1993 video game DOOM. This update, dubbed “one hell of an update,” can be downloaded through the Husqvarna Automower Connect App, allowing you to experience the thrill of battling demons in your own backyard.
Following the overwhelmingly positive reception of the DOOM x Husqvarna collaboration at DreamHack Winter 2023, this exclusive update will be available for a limited time, from April 9 to September 9, 2024.
DOOM revolutionised the gaming industry when it was first released, offering players a heart-pounding, immersive experience unlike anything seen before. Now, you can bring that same excitement to your lawn care routine by playing DOOM on your Husqvarna robotic lawnmower. Who said mowing the lawn was boring!
To register for the update, owners of Husqvarna Automower NERA models can sign up now at Husqvarna.com/register-doom. Once the update is released on April 9, 2024, it may take up to a week for the game to be playable on your robotic lawnmower. Make sure to enable Wi-Fi on your mower and ensure good coverage at the charging station for faster download speeds.
Registration closes on August 26, 2024, and the game will be removed from the robotic lawnmowers on September 9, 2024.
