A couple of days ago, we informed you about the second post-launch patch for Doom Eternal. And today, we are happy to report that Doom Eternal Update 2 is available for download on both Steam and the Bethesda Launcher, and Bethesda has revealed its complete changelog/release notes.
According to the release notes, Doom Eternal Update 2 brings a brand new Battlemode map. Moreover, the Castle Grayscale mini-event is now live. This event will run until July 2nd. Additionally, the team has made a number of improvements to address latency issues in Battlemode to ensure better matches.
Doom Eternal Patch 2 also brings more empowered demons to the campaign mode for an added challenge. Furthermore, it brings Boosters Menu and Photo Mode improvements.
It’s also worth noting that this update brings custom keybinds for Every Demon. As such, players can now use unique keybinds for demons in Battlemode.
Lastly, this patch comes with a number of fixes that you can find below.
