There are five playable demons at launch, with more to be included in free updates post-launch. This game type is a 2v1 PvP multi-round match where two player-controlled demons take on one fully loaded Slayer. The game features several asymmetric multiplayer modes, including Battlemode. When the Doom Slayer perishes in combat, he will respawn where he died if he has spare lives, instead of restarting at the nearest checkpoint. During gameplay, players can collect 1-up items (which look like green helmets) scattered around the environment. Through this system, certain parts of a demon's anatomy can be destroyed to eliminate their ability to use their stronger attacks. A new system called "Destructible Demons" is featured, in which enemies' bodies progressively deteriorate as they take damage. There are new types of enemies, such as the Marauder and Doom Hunter, while others, such as the Pain Elemental, Arachnotron, and Arch-vile, have been reintroduced from previous Doom entries.

Ĭreative director Hugo Martin has stated there would be twice as many demon types as in the 2016 reboot.

They also need to decide which enemy has to be killed first and how to move on the battlefield. As the game gets harder, the player needs to use the advantages of fight arenas, and their bonuses, in more strategic ways. Like its predecessor, Doom Eternal invites the player to develop simple tactics. New movement mechanics such as wall-climbing, dash moves, and horizontal bars to swing from have also been introduced. Finally, killing enemies with the chainsaw will drop ammunition. In addition, there is the Flame Belch, a flamethrower that sets enemies on fire with it to drop armor pickups. The Doom Slayer's armor now includes a shoulder-mounted Equipment Launcher with the ability to lob grenades and ice bombs. The Super Shotgun is now equipped with the "Meat Hook", a ranged accessory which grabs on to enemies and slingshots the player towards them, functioning as a grappling hook, useful both in combat scenarios and environmental navigation. The arm-blade provides the opportunity for a larger variety of quick and violent "glory kill" executions, which drop extra health. Melee weapons such as a chainsaw, the "Crucible Blade" energy sword, the Sentinel Argent Hammer, and a retractable arm-blade called the "Doomblade" can also be used. The player has access to various firearms, such as the Combat Shotgun, Super Shotgun, Heavy Cannon, Rocket Launcher, Plasma Rifle, Chaingun, BFG 9000, and Ballista. The game continues its predecessor's emphasis on "push-forward" combat, encouraging the player to aggressively engage enemies in order to acquire health, ammo, and armor. Players once again take on the role of the Doom Slayer who battles the demonic forces of Hell, from a first-person perspective.
