Bethesda e id Software hanno reso disponibile un nuovo aggiornamento di Doom, nel quale sono disponibili Deathmatch e Match Privati. Viene infatti introdotta la possibilità di giocare nella modalità Deathmatch, e di creare delle lobby private con regole personalizzate. A questo proposito, l’update si limita anche a risolvere alcuni bug e problemi tecnici minori nella campagna e nell’editor SnapMap, oltre ad aver migliorato la stabilità generale del gioco.
La notizia è arrivata nella giornata di ieri tramite il profilo Twitter ufficiale del gioco (tweet qui sotto). In più è stato annunciato che per celebrare l’arrivo di questi aggiornamenti per tutto il weekend saranno disponibili punti esperienza doppi per qualsiasi modalità multigiocatore.
