While I was a little too young to play the original DOOM or DOOM 2 when they initially came out, I've been a fan of the series once I was finally able to play the games myself. I even got deep into the modding world for awhile (loved the BRUTAL DOOM mod, and was ecstatic to see glory kills added to the official canon)! So it's no surprise that I was also a fan of the 2016 remake and its sequel DOOM ETERNAL (though I'm aware in some circles the sequel's reception was a bit more…mixed).
Whatever your feelings about the games are, DOOM ETERNAL is nonetheless going to be getting some sweet new DLC soon, which was included with the $29.99 “Year One Pass.” The official Twitter account has even released some new screenshots, which you can check out below:

Not much to go on, but looks pretty cool to me! Meanwhile, here's the story of the upcoming DLC, via Steam:
The Slayer’s legend grows…
Your victory over Hell’s armies pulled humanity back from the edge of extinction, but it came at a cost. An imbalance of power in the heavens requires the true ruler of this universe to rise and set things right. Wage war across never-before-seen realms of the DOOM Universe, fight against new demons, and wield new abilities in your never-ending battle against the forces of evil.
Owners/Purchasers of the DOOM Eternal Deluxe Edition will get access to the first two campaign expansions when they are released.
Badass. No official release date has been announced as of yet, but it is currently slated for sometime later this year.
So what do you guys think? Fans of DOOM ETERNAL? If so, what would you most like to see in the expansion? Either way, sound off below!
