Everything We Learned About DOOM Eternal At QuakeCon 2018
As one of 2016's biggest hits, Doom was always going to be followed by a sequel. Announced as part of this year's supersized E3 presentation for Bethesda, Doom Eternal has a more elaborate name than its predecessor. Instead of going with the standard Doom 2 , here's how Nolan's Batman movies influenced Doom Eternal 's n
So far, the images look promising, but the same could be said for the ill-fated Power Armor doometernalplay.com Edition of Fallout 76 . Since players didn’t appear to complain about the wearable T-51B Power Armor Helmet, which came with the ill-fated bag, there’s hope for DOOM Eternal. After all, Bethesda has wisely stayed away from can
"You hear us say it all the time, we call it Doom 2016, and the internet has called it Doom 2016. We go back and forth on whether it was a mistake to call it Doom. I still don’t think it was a mistake, because we really were kind of drawing a new line in the sand. Coming out and saying ‘we’re going to do Doom 2,’ we would have ‘Doom 2: Year of Release Date.
RAGE 2 is coming to PC, PS4, and Xbox One on May 14, 2019. Anyone looking to take the post-apocalyptic dive can pre-order the game on Amazon , or the special edition version if you want a mutant head . Seriou
Like Bethesda, Electronic Arts is struggling with an image problem after the Star Wars Battlefront 2 loot box controversy and the Anthem drama. EA is opting out of a traditional press conference for E3 2019, but the company will look to win fans over with news on Anthem 's future, a possible new Apex Legends character, more content for Battlefield V , and the very first Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order gameplay foota
Looking at the history of the series, it makes sense that Doom Eternal be called something other than Doom 2 . Fans of the games will remember that 1993's original was followed by Doom II: Hell on Earth in 1994. Hell on Earth was usually shortened to Doom 2 , so it's easy to see why Stratton and his team wanted to avoid the confus
Every year, E3 aims to be the biggest show in video gaming, full of in-depth game previews and brand new game announcements. Since video game publishers like to surprise their audiences with game announcements at their E3 press conferences, many of the games that will be at the show are kept secret, though there are many more that are announced ahead of t
Interestingly, Doom Eternal still has a Hell on Earth vibe as the recent QuakeCon gameplay trailer showed the ruins of an apocalyptic Earth alongside the Martian moon of Phobos. Much more than a standard sequel, Doom Eternal will include a change to 2016's maligned multiplayer and also introduce a new 'Invasions' system where teams of players can enter someone else's single-player campaign as a group of bloodthirsty dem
"I think [Christopher] Nolan did it the best, and we thought about that. It wasn’t ‘Dark Knight 1, Dark Knight 2, Dark Knight 3.’ Each one had its own name, but there was an arc there. They were all connected, as is this game as a sequel to [Doom] 20

Snapmap, the fan-creation tool, won’t return in Doom Eternal. id revealed that one of the biggest criticisms they heard was that there was no single player DLC. Players wanted more id developed content, and so the developers opted to scrap Snapmap and focus those resources on post-launch single player content.
Those hoping for more multiplayer experiences will be happy to know Doom Eternal features plenty of social activity. With Invasions, id’s objective was to make the Doom gameplay loop social. Enemy players can invade your game to play as a demon and try to kill you.
The same is true of the dashing mechanic. Have unlimited dash, and it becomes too easy to abuse. Escaping enemies is simple and encounters become boring. By putting a cooldown on dashing, id hopes that players think carefully before using it up. The overall goal is for players to make up the difference between what equipment can and can’t do with skill.
Cyberpunk 2077
CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 turned heads at E3 2018 , and it will be exciting to see how far the project has come since then. Often listed as one of the most anticipated video games, Cyberpunk 2077 is especially exciting when one considers the likely possibility that it is a cross-gen title. If Microsoft announces its next-generation Xbox consoles at E3 2019 as some analysts have predicted, perhaps we will get to see Cyberpunk 2077 running on the new hardw
