It turns out that Bethesda's upcoming **Doom Eternal ** gained an unusual tie to Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy when it came to naming the sequel. 2016's Doom reinvented the shooter series from its original roots and brought the demonic world of Slayers to the next-generation of gaming conso

Luigi doesn’t get enough love within the Nintendo hierarchy, but he finally gets his much-requested sequel with Luigi’s Mansion 3 .

Like the old games, Doom Eternal was intentionally designed to encourage exploration. The developers grew up playing games that rewarded players who traveled off the beaten path in search of secrets, which they wanted to emulate. In Doom Eternal, wandering off the beaten path nets players collectibles and special pickups, such as extra lives. Extra lives serve as a ‘get out of jail’ card that instantly respawns players into a fight without having to load a checkpoint.


Interestingly, Doom Eternal still has a Hell on Earth vibe as the recent QuakeCon gameplay trailer showed the ruins of an apocalyptic Earth alongside the Martian moon of Phobos.
