A Surprise Update Has Arrived for DOOM and DOOM 2

The legendary DOOM series continues to be updated despite its nearly 30-year history. Bethesda and Nightdive Studios have released a surprise update for DOOM and DOOM 2. This update adds long-awaited features such as multiplayer mode support to the game, while also improving the gaming experience with performance improvements and bug fixes. The fact that mod support is offered in multiplayer, in particular, stands out as an exciting innovation for fans of the classic game.

Multiplayer Experience with Mod Support

The most striking feature of the update is the addition of multiplayer mode support to DOOM and DOOM 2. Players will now be able to experience these contents in multiplayer matches by creating their own mods or using mods prepared by the community. There are certain requirements for mods to work; for example, players must subscribe to the same mod and the host must activate the mod. However, this new feature enriches the classic DOOM experience with a modern touch.

The update also offers additional innovations such as spectator mode, increased player color options, and improved network code. Bug fixes include issues such as some doors appearing in the wrong color on the automap and item collection issues.

The update draws attention not only with its mod support, but also with many improvements that affect overall game performance. Details such as making mod descriptions more readable, especially in Asian languages, and resolving cross-platform friends list issues positively affect the player experience. In addition, issues with players losing their weapons during respawn in co-op mode have been resolved.

This update, which also does not forget Nintendo Switch users, has made it possible for mod subscriptions to work on multiple user profiles. In addition, changes made to mod compatibility for PC players will make life easier for mod developers.
