Doom Eternal: A Deeper Dive
Doom Eternal is set two years after the events of 2016’s Doom. Earth has been overrun by demonic forces, and humanity is on the brink of extinction. The Doom Slayer, having previously been teleported to an unknown location, returns to Earth with a new arsenal of weapons to save the human race from annihilation. The game promises to deliver intense first-person shooter action, with fast-paced gameplay and brutal combat.
“Doom Eternal is an upcoming first-person shooter video game developed by id Software and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is the fifth main game in the Doom series and a direct sequel to 2016’s Doom, and is set for release on March 20, 2020, for Windows, PlayStation 4, Stadia, and Xbox One, with a Nintendo Switch version planned for a release at a later date.”
Doom Eternal introduces several new gameplay mechanics, including a grappling hook called the “Meat Hook,” which allows players to traverse the environment more fluidly and engage enemies from different angles. The game also features a new resource management system, where players must strategically use health, armor, and ammunition pickups to survive the relentless onslaught of demons.
The game’s story expands on the lore of the Doom universe, exploring the origins of the Doom Slayer and the demonic invasion of Earth. Players will encounter new enemy types, each with unique abilities and weaknesses, requiring them to adapt their strategies and use their arsenal effectively.
In addition to the single-player campaign, Doom Eternal offers a multiplayer mode called “Battlemode,” where players can take on the role of either the Doom Slayer or one of several powerful demons in intense 2v1 battles. This mode adds a new layer of strategy and excitement to the game, as players must work together to outsmart and outgun their opponents.
Overall, Doom Eternal promises to be a thrilling and action-packed experience for fans of the series and newcomers alike. With its release just around the corner, players can look forward to diving into the chaotic and demon-infested world of Doom once again.
