Developer id Software has an early Christmas present for players of Doom Eternal in the form of a new Master Level and a new holiday-themed event. It’s been a busy year for the grandpappy of all first-person shooters since the release of Doom Eternal early in 2020. The game’s first DLC, entitled The Ancient Gods, Part One, expanded on the campaign’s story in great fashion, setting up truly brutal revelations that are set to be paid off in 2021. As for now, players can still enjoy the multiplayer Battlemode for a warm-up before diving into what promises to be one of the most challenging levels in all of modern Doom.
“Master Level” is the name given to bonus levels in Doom Eternal, usually with a much-increased difficulty when compared to the main game. The name also has a secondary meaning from the history of the franchise. In Doom’s heyday, id Software released several official compilations of levels made outside the studio as expansion packs. For Doom II, the pack was called Master Levels for Doom II, which ties nicely into Doom Eternal mirroring the Hell on Earth theming from the original sequel.
Announced today by id Software alongside a new patch for Doom Eternal, the Super Gore Nest Master Level puts the DOOM Slayer up against hordes of high-level demons in combinations seen nowhere else in the game. The level, which has been released for free on all platforms, remixes an area from the campaign and tunes it in a way that requires expert play. Those that can fight their way through the hordes can gain unique player icons, nameplates, and other cosmetics, including a shining golden skin for the Combat Shotgun.
In addition to the default difficulty spike, players can test their skills with three additional difficulty modifiers. Classic Mode strips the Slayer down to the default shotgun and forces him to reclaim his arsenal throughout the level, just like he did back in the ’90s. The Extra-Life Difficulty turns on permadeath with additional lives scattered throughout the arena. This mode is described as training for Ultra Nightmare, which tasks players with completing the entire gauntlet in one go without dying.
Alongside several fixes (and a resolution boost for the newly released Xbox consoles), players can also grind their way through the Gift Wrap and Tear event. Completing in-game events and challenges can unlock icy skins for the Revenant, Arch-vile, and Mancubus, festive gift wrap weapon wraps, and armor for the DOOM Slayer inspired by Old Saint Nick himself. The event starts on December 10 and runs until it’s time to throw out the Christmas tree on January 14.
With another campaign expansion, a leak that reveals several other Master Level updates, and the promise of a possible Invasion Mode still in the works for 2021, there’s plenty more to come in the future for Doom Eternal. The game will release on Nintendo Switch next week, completing the trifecta of consoles and ensuring that any player that wants to slay demons can do so. As for beyond Eternal, it’s all up to Microsoft to see what the next Doom will bring.
