this feels like an april fools joke, or the onion article. o_O

edit: oh, derp.

This April, we’re making the legendary game playable on our robotic mowers

This April

yeaa, I'm calling this an early april fools joke

It may be, but they still need Bethesda/Microsoft's permission to use Doom™ trademark. We're not in April and that's a legit commercial ads on their official channel.

Man, odd stuff always happens when the programming team hangs out with the boys in marketing.

Supposedly you will be able to play doom on the mower between April and September this year but they've already showed it off. At dreadhack this winter Husqvarna let people play doom on their mower.
I wasn't there I just read an excerpt of an article

Maybe they'll release a non-complete port of the game at April Fools
