Doom Eternal is a FPS sci-fi game made by id Software and published by Bethesda Softworks. The game is a sequel to Doom (2016) which continues the time line of the classic Doom series, and uses the newer Id Tech 7 engine.

The game was released on Steam and Bethesda.net on March 20, 2020. On the release day it was discovered that Bethesda.net copies of the game shipped with a DRM-free version of the game executable, which was subsequently removed the same day by id Software.[1]

On May 14, 2020 Update 1 for the game added empowered demons, echelon levelling and introduced the Denuvo Anti-Cheat protection to scan and report cheaters within the battlemode multiplayer game mode.[2] The introduced anti-cheat solution drew criticism because of its use of a kernel mode driver and introducing issues with the Proton compatibility layer for Linux players.[3] On May 20, 2020 id Software announced they were developing an update to remove the anti-cheat protection, which released on May 27, 2020.[4] [5]

Doom Eternal's creative director announced that the game would not contain microtransactions on January 27, 2020.[6] However on March 10, 2020, details of new cosmetics were released as content tied with Twitch Prime subscriptions.[7]

On June 29, 2021 Update 6 for the game added ray traced reflections and DLSS. Many skins can be earned in-game through XP unlocks. Some skins were released as content tied with a Twitch Prime subscription until July 2020.[8]

Mod tools have been discussed by the developer but have never been officially announced.[9] A small modding community exists on Nexus Mods. Doom and Doom II are playable within Doom Eternal, but the WAD files are also included in the game files, and can be played externally using Doom source ports.

When gamepad is active, weapon wheel accepts gamepad input only. Configurations with simultaneous input (e.g. right trackpad of Steam Controller acts like a mouse) require mode shifting.

Issues fixed [edit]

"No physical devices" error when starting up the game [edit]

Make sure to have the computer configured to use dedicated graphics card for Doom Eternal, instead of integrated GPU.[22]

Game crashes on launch when using AMD Ryzen CPU or Nvidia GPU [edit]

Update Chipset driver for CPU[23]
Update BIOS[23]

[edit]

Update GPU drivers[23]
If using two AMD GPUs, plug both monitors into the primary GPU[23]
Disable Reshade's Global Vulkan Hook (assuming it was ever installed)[24]

Game loads to a black screen when launching in full-screen mode [edit]

Update GPU drivers[23]
Add DOOMEternalx64vk.exe to exceptions in your antivirus software (including Windows Defender!).[23] [25]
Disable one of GPUs if running SLI configuration[26]
If using Occulus VR goggles, unplug them[27]

Some areas of the screen are obscured by large numbers of black particles [edit]

Disable Depth of Field[23]

Various performance issues [edit]

Update GPU drivers[23]
Use V-sync option other than adaptive and if that doesn't help - disable Vsync entirely.[14]
V-sync in combination with asynchronous-compute can cause performance issues - if you don't want to pass on V-sync, disable Present From Compute or use Triple Buffering.
The widely reported performance issues caused by the Steam Overlay and Steam in-game FPS-counter were fixed in the Steam Client update from the 29th of April 2020.[28]

Running stutters when moving foward using steam input [edit]

Using Steam input's controller support can cause issues with DOOM Eternal default deadzones, causing a "stutter" like feel in the controls when moving forward or backwards.
Enable deadzone configuration or calibration through Steam input [citation needed]
  1. Right click on the game in your Steam library
  2. Go to Manage.
  3. Click on Controller layout and then on Joystick Move for the left joystick you use to move in-game.
  4. Go to Additional Settings and under Enable Deadzone choose Configuration or Calibration, assuming you have calibrated the deadzone through Steam input in the past.
  5. Close the Steam controller configurator & start the game.

Game language can't be changed unless you use a launcher or change Windows language settings. [edit]

Use the +sys_langPlatform "en" command line argument [citation needed]

Sped-up/distorted audio [edit]

Setting your audio card to play at a sample rate higher than 48000 Hz will speed up the audio and/or cause crackling/distortion. Higher sample rates will result in faster speeds. [citation needed]
There is no official fix for this bug.
Set your audio sample rate to 48000 Hz

Mods [edit]

Original TAG1 [edit]

Restores TAG1 spawns to how they were before Update 5.0.

Challenge Restored [edit]

Restores monster behavior to how they were before Update 5.0.
Hasn't been updated since Update 6.66 released for the game, making this mod very likely incompatible with the latest version of the game.
The mod has two versions: "Faithful" which just restores the monster behavior that was changed in Update 5.0, and "Balanced" which makes it's own unique balance changes.

Decensor Doom and Doom II [edit]

Doom Eternal includes censored WADs of Doom (PSN edition) and Doom II (Bethesda.net edition), similar to the Doom 3: BFG Edition versions. [citation needed]
Add the original wad files manually. [citation needed]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>\base\classicwads\.
  2. Copy the original DOOM.WAD and DOOM2.WAD files into the folder and overwrite when prompted.

Unlock classic pistol [edit]

Use console command[29]
Only works on the release version of the game. Subsequent updates of the game don't contain the console command anymore.
  1. Start the game, and minimize it.
  2. Open the Doom Eternal cheat table in Cheat Engine.
  3. Enable Unrestrict Console Commands/Cvars & Bind.
  4. Open the game's console via ~ , and type g_enablePistol 1.

Skip launcher GPU warnings [edit]

Edit launcher config[30]
Disabling these warnings isn't recommended as these warnings are there for a reason. It is generally advised to first follow the advice in the warnings! Ignoring these warnings can lead to in-game bugs, the game not starting etc.
  1. Open <path-to-game>\launcherData\launcher.cfg in text editor.
  2. Switch rgl_showAMDStartupWarning parameter to 0.
  3. Switch rgl_showIntelStartupWarning parameter to 0.
  4. Switch rgl_showNvidiaStartupWarning parameter to 0.
  5. Save the file.

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/782330/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (782330) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
