Oh wait.

Nope. Sometimes they add in a new challenge map, but that happens only rarely (once per six months or so). The touted invasion mode that let you drop into someone else's game to mess with them has been scrapped in favor of a horde mode, which was already being modded in by the fans. For the rest there's fake longevity by putting unlockable skins behind a grind, and you have to complete the grind in a month before the unlock track gets replaced by another one. For example, the new track appeared today and will run until September 2nd. And if you missed them? Well, the first two packs are available for purchase at $8.99 each.
Nah, Deathmatch was excluded from Doom Eternal because according to Pete Hines it wouldn't feel like Doom.Nope.

That's a shame, but I guess the answer already lied in how I was the only person posting itt.
Even if modding tools are impractical or out of reach for some reason or another, they could just make a truly solid multiplayer a la Unreal Tournament 2k4. Didn't id Software do Quake 3 Arena itself? I know, not those zoomers present right now, but still. The mechanics in Doom Eternal are already good enough to support such kind of multiplayer. It's not like they don't have a budget since the game got them half a billion dorras.
Update: make that THREE now. They come in three different flavors: the Slayer cosmetic packs that have one new model for the Slayer and some vanity stuff that'll only matter if you play online a lot, and the Series cosmetic packs that have 2-3 skins for demons, one for the Slayer, two new weapon skins and more multiplayer vanity stuff. Note that you could unlock this by playing the game during the time the packs were active, where you'd gain XP along a track to unlock you these things. So basically a free season pass. But the season's over and if you want them, better cough up that dough:Well, the first two packs are available for purchase at $8.99 each.
Would be great if they released a proper level editor and tools that allow people to create custom maps and campaigns like for old Doom. There is lots of potential here. But modern gaming industry is being modern gaming industry.
UPDATE 6.66 BRINGS HORDE MODE, BATTLEMODE UPDATES AND MORE
Get excited – DOOM Eternal’s upcoming Update 6.66 is on the way, with tons of new content and improvements for fans across all platforms to enjoy.
Slayers will put their skills to the test with Horde Mode, a fast-paced gauntlet pitting players against waves of demons as they compete for the best score. As you battle through the demons’ forces, high priority targets will be marked, challenging players to eliminate them expediently for a massive score bonus! As you play and improve your rankings, more content (and challenges) are unlocked, offering a replayable experience and more dead demons than you can shake a Meathook at.
BATTLEMODE is also getting a major overhaul with an improved matchmaking system that takes your win streaks into account, meaning more matches with similar players along with several other enhancements to improve your experience in the arena. Speaking of arenas, Update 6.66 also brings Stronghold, an all-new BATTLEMODE arena for you and your friends to duke it out online!
Of course, we haven’t forgotten about Master Levels. Update 6.66 will include not one, but two new Master Levels for players to test their mettle: World Spear and Mars Core. We’ll have more to share on Update 6.66 in the near future, so be sure to check out the Slayers Club to stay current on the latest DOOM news.
At release TAG part 1 was a sharp increase in difficulty from the base game, but that was also in part because it has been a while since people last played the game. When TAG part 2 came out the difficulty was nerfed, which people didn't like.After an eternity, the DLC's denuvo was defeated.
So what was that about the difficulty?
DOOM Eternal’s Update 6.66 arrives 10/26! Our biggest free update yet will include the all-new arcade style Horde Mode, BATTLEMODE 2.0 with a new arena and streak-based rewards, two new Master Levels and more!
