What was the multiplayer in Doom (2016) even? Completely forgot there was any.

Throughout the development of DOOM Eternal, our goal has been to deliver a game that exceeds your greatest expectations across the board. 

To make sure we’re delivering the best experience — for DOOM Eternal to live up to our standards of speed and polish — we’ve made the decision to extend our launch date by a few months to March 20, 2020.  We know many fans will be disappointed by this delay, but we are confident that DOOM Eternal will deliver a gaming experience that is worth the wait.

In addition to shifting the DOOM Eternal launch date, we’ve made a couple other changes we wanted you to know about:

• Invasion Mode, which will allow you to enter another player’s game as a playable demon, will release as a free update shortly after launch.
  
• DOOM Eternal for Nintendo Switch will release after the other platforms. We will announce that date in the future.
  
• DOOM 64 will be available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC in addition to Nintendo Switch. We are adding DOOM 64 as a pre-order bonus for DOOM Eternal on all platforms so you’ll be able to download and play this classic game, for free, just for pre-ordering DOOM Eternal. DOOM 64 will be released on March 20, 2020 on all platforms.
  

We are grateful to every DOOM fan for your dedication and support – we can’t wait to rip-and-tear right alongside you.

• It was a pre-recorded video narrated by Hugo Martin, the studio's creative director.
  
• This was an alpha version of the game, mixing scenes with snippets of raw gameplay.
  
• The snippets shown were like extensions of the sequences shown in the announcement trailer.
  
• It was made clear that the game areas are much more open than in previous games.
  
  
• *SPOILER* Melee Weapons: It was confirmed that there will be 3 melee weapons: a flail that allows you to collect ammunition, a mace and a fist that creates chains of electricity between enemies.
  
  
• The saw shield allows you to transverse the map, but it can also be thrown against enemies and be recovered while it tears their flesh.
  
• Green projectiles can be reflected back at enemies.
  
• Verticality no longer plays an important role in the game. When the Doom Slayer jumps, it's similar to the mechanics of the power armor in Fallout 4 or Fallout 76.
  
  
• *SPOILER* Glory Kills: The Glory Kill system has been completely reinvented. These are no longer programmed eliminations depending on the angle of attack. Now a small purple halo appears on the enemy, signifying that the player can execute it. Glory kills seem to be based on kicks and punches or any melee weapon, depending on the player's choice.
  
  
• *SPOILER* Weapons: A new weapon has been shown, a type of double-barrel plasma gun. It's reminiscent of the plasma gun from the first DOOM, but with two barrels connected by a piece of metal. Both cannons fire at the same time. Another weapon was revealed, a single-barrel shotgun.
  
  
• The nail gun shown in the first trailer, as well as the other weapons, interact perfectly with all the game's mechanics. For example, a wall was shown on which several enemies were nailed.
  
  
• The Dragon and Altan (the big mech) can be played several times in the campaign.
  
• Altan fights with his fists and a double cannon. He also has his own HUD. When he takes damage, pieces of his armor break off.
  
• Altan can perform glory kills.
  
  
• *SPOILER* Enemies: Never-before-seen enemies have been shown, while the existing ones have undergone some modifications: One of the new enemies is a strange octobrain that fired blue projectiles, and a new one is a big quadlegged cyberdemon. Arachnotrons are now more fleshy.
  
  
• The HUD is reminiscent of DOOM Eternal.
  
• The environmental narrative seems to play an important role in the game.
