During the past weekend’s QuakeCon: Year of DOOM Keynote, Bethesda showed off some exciting new gameplay for DOOM Eternal’s BATTLEMODE, unveiled the legacy DOOM titles coming to consoles and mobile phones, offered a look at what’s to come for RAGE 2, and celebrated today’s launch of Wolfenstein: Youngblood and Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot. In addition, the annual QuakeCon sale is underway, with incredible savings across our lineup.
DOOM Eternal
During this year’s QuakeCon: Year of DOOM keynote address, id Software Executive Producer Marty Stratton and Creative Director Hugo Martin revealed more information about DOOM Eternal’s new PvP experience, BATTLEMODE. Designed from the ground up by id Software alongside DOOM Eternal’s single-player campaign, BATTLEMODE is an all-new multiplayer mode where a team of two player-controlled demons use their cunning (and demon reinforcements) to take down their opponent – a player in the boots of a fully armed DOOM Slayer.
New details were announced around BATTLEMODE’s arenas and the various playable demons and their special abilities. Visit slayersclub.com to learn more and pre-order DOOM Eternal today to receive the Rip and Tear Pack, which features bonus content including the DOOT Revenant Skin to wield in BATTLEMODE.
