Doom Eternal kommer få ett nytt singelspelar-läget i ett så kallat Horde mode. Det var tidigare tänkt att spelet skulle få ett invasion-läge likt Dark Souls med PVP-inriktning, men istället blir det nu ett horde-läge.

Marty Stratton skriver så här i ett uttalande:

"As many are aware, we intended to release a free Invasion Mode update for the game; however, the unforeseen consequences of the pandemic and remote working impacted the progresss of development for this addition," 

"Over this time, we have also seen and heard how many of you enjoy the range of gameplay and combat available in the expansions and master levels. With these factors in mind, we have decided to redirect our focus from Invasion Mode to creating a totally new single-player horde mode.

"We're confident this horde mode will offer you more of the diversity and challenge you're looking for in the game. In addition, the team continues to work on a refresh of BATTLEMODE that includes a more competitive, rank-based structure, a number of gameplay and balance updates and another new map. We expect to share more information at QuakeCon in August."

Allt säger sig själv, vi kommer få veta mer på QuakeCon den 19:e augusti. Förhoppningsvis får vi kanske också mer info om en fortsättning på Doom slayers resa som påbörjades 2016.
