Doom Eternal is a 2020 first-person shooter game developed by id Software and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is the sequel to Doom (2016), and the seventh game in the Doom series. The story follows the Doom Slayer once again, on a mission to end Hell's consumption of Earth and foil the alien Maykrs' plans to exterminate humanity. Doom Eternal introduces several new weapons and enemy types, and has a large focus on resource management in which players can gain the Slayer's ammo, armor and health by executing enemies in close range. Along with the single-player campaign, a multiplayer mode, Battlemode, was introduced. In this mode, players can either play as the Doom Slayer or as a demon, and fight until either the Doom Slayer defeats the demons, or vice versa.
