Doom Eternal was revealed at E3 this year, and it’s the ultimate compliment to the 2016 reboot - a proper sequel. It features more beefy demons in the style of the first game, and from the sounds of it, another exquisite industrial metal soundtrack courtesy of id Software’s resident composer Mick Gordon.
Doom 2016’s creative director Marty Stratton has handed over the reins to the studio’s art director, Hugo Martin - so expect the most beautiful gore you’ve ever seen in your history of PC gaming. This time we’re going to Earth, but not as we know it. Id has twisted the planet into a delightful hellscape, which makes clear the demons have escaped Mars and found a new home with us.
The last Doom is aleady on our list of on PC, will Eternal make the cut?
While id Software unveiled Doom Eternal’s first trailer at E3, it failed to mention much else about it - other than the fact there will be plenty of new features. That won’t be down to a missing paragraph on the autocue - id Software is planning to debut the game properly on its home turf, at QuakeCon in Dallas this August.
Until then, there’s still plenty to chew on. Join us for a speculative dive into the nightmarish world of Doom Eternal.
Doom Eternal release date
There is no Doom Eternal release date yet, we didn’t get so much as a hint during . We may find out when Doom Eternal is coming out QuakeCon.
Fortnite’s rocket launch was a once-ever event, and players throughout the game were quick to call truces and hold viewing parties in order to see the rocket live. But not everyone wants to abide by the social contract, and one player took the opportunity to set a new solo kill record by offing a bunch of hapless rocket-watchers.
During one match, players joined forces to build a massive ramp for the best possible angle to see the rocket. One player, by the name of Elemental_Ray, chopped out that ramp from underneath, sending over 40 players to their untimely dooms. Elemental_Ray ended that match with a total of 48 kills - a new all-time kill record for a solo game.
Build the spirit of cooperation (and griefing) with the .
Now, I don’t want to cast too many dispersions since I’m not especially good at Fortnite, but Elemental_Ray isn’t a particularly notable Fortnite player, either. He’s got a 1% win percentage according to , and apparently had a K/D ratio of just 0.47 at the time of his record - though that’s improved to 0.81 since the 48 kill match. He didn’t end up winning this one, either.
Naturally, not everyone’s happy about the method by which the record was achieved, but Elemental_Ray appears to be enjoying the newfound fame. He’s started a Twitch channel and now proclaims himself “THE MOST HATED MAN” in the game via his profile. (And he did at least wait for the rocket to land before knocking the ramp down.)
