Doomguy[a] is the protagonist of the Doom franchise by id Software. He was created by American video game designer John Romero and was introduced as the player character in the original 1993 video game Doom.

In Doom Eternal, he is voiced by American voice actor Matthew Waterson, while Jason Kelley voices the character in that game's downloadable content The Ancient Gods: Part Two. A different character with a role similar to that of Doomguy was portrayed by Karl Urban in the 2005 film adaptation.
