Doom Eternal Horde Mode Arriving Next Week

When Doom Eternal was first launched last year, it received great critical acclaim, with many critics hailing it as one of the best FPS games in recent memory. Bethesda and id Software originally planned to extend Doom Eternal’s lifespan with an Invasion game mode, but Horde Mode was chosen instead. Doom Eternal fans now have an actual date for when Horde Mode will be released, and they won’t have to wait long to try it out.

It has been announced that Doom Eternal Horde Mode will be released as part of version 6.66 on Tuesday, October 26. Horde Mode will most likely be similar to Horde Mode in other games in that players must fight back against unending waves of attackers, however they will be able to do so using the Doomslayer’s enormous arsenal and skills. It should add a lot of replay value to Doom Eternal, so it’ll be interesting to see how it all comes together on October 26.

Update 6.66 adds significantly additional content to Doom Eternal, in addition to Horde Mode. Battlemode 2.0, which introduces a new arena and features to the game’s unique asymmetrical PvP mode, will be available to fans of the blood-soaked FPS. With update 6.66, two more Doom Eternal Master Levels will be added to the game, as well as extra material that has yet to be disclosed.

While Doom Eternal will offer Horde Mode for the first time in an official capacity, the PC version has had a variation of it for quite some time. A modder produced their own version of Doom Eternal Horde Mode for PC enthusiasts a few months after the game was released. Horde Mode in Doom Eternal will now be an official component of the game, and console players will also be allowed to participate.

With Horde Mode and Battlemode 2.0, one would suppose that update 6.66 would be the final big post-launch feature update for Doom Eternal. After all, since its initial release in 2020, the game has already gotten its Ancient Gods expansions as well as countless upgrades. If that’s the case, Doom Eternal has had an excellent run, and there’s no disputing that id Software’s famed first-person shooter game’s post-launch features have contributed significantly to its endurance.
