Description

The Ancient Gods – Part One is the first campaign expansion for the critically acclaimed DOOM Eternal.

Your war is not over… slaying the Khan Maykr left an imbalance of power that threatens all of creation. The legions of Hell have razed the heavens, threatening to expand their control across dimensions. With the aid of an old ally, battle your way back to Urdak and decide the fate of the cosmos. Your mission is now your own.

New Mission

Experience a new mission in your eternal fight against evil. Unleash your vengeance and face your greatest test as you march back to the Maykr’s realm. Defeat powerful new threats, restore order to the heavens and unearth the corruption that has thrown the universe into chaos.

New Locations

From the industrial rain-swept decks of the oceanic UAC Atlantica Facility on Earth to the corpse littered Blood Swamps of Hell to the crumbling ruins of a demon-infested Urdak, you will visit epic new locations to eviscerate the armies of Hell.

New Enemies

Change your tactics as you face Hell’s newest threats that add more depth and challenge to combat. Face the Spirit, an ethereal enemy that buffs other demons with added strength and speed, and the Blood Maykr – a corrupted Maykr Angel armed with a powerful staff that can be hurled with thunderbolt force.

This was a genuine slog. The enemy encounters were tedious and a far departure from Eternal's formula. The Blood Swamps specifically were the most exhausting and definitely overstayed their welcome. If you insist on

You want more doom eternal? We got it, go get it. Three new maps, a couple of new enemies and I am happy with it. One of the new enemies annoys me, and the boss at the end was a bit of a step down for me, but its

I feel like the Doom Eternal DLC is an unnecessary expansion; it doesn't relocate us in time after the events of the base game, although they could have given it a little more context. You finish Doom Eternal and you're

“DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods — Part One” offers a different formula by trying to tie the main game's loose ends narratively speaking. And although the art of the level design is still awe-inspiring and offer

Crucible was deleted and replaced with nothing. Blood swamps is one of the best soundtracks of doom. The biggest issue is the price. Should be cheaper. Bought only cuz its required for achievements but it was still
