Doom Eternal won't have traditional (deathmatch) multiplayer. Its offerings are strictly the 2 v 1 Battlemode announced at Bethesda's E3 conference; but by all accounts, this is a very good thing.
"No traditional multiplayer mode. Battlemode is our primary multiplayer mode," says Executive Producer Marty Stratton. "The cool thing about it is it’s ripped straight from Doom; it’s the combat players want and love, you’re familiar with the gameplay, playing as a Slayer."
Although Doom 2016's single player mode was fantastic, the team learned a lot from its not-particular-well-received multiplayer mode.
"When you look back to Doom 2016", says Stratton, "we kind of did something more traditional. Skill vs skill twitch vs twitch. It didn’t have any of the components of Doom that people loved from the campaign. It didn’t have the slayer or demons in a meaningful way. It just kind of fell flat so we really flipped the script on it and decided we need to develop this internally, we need to pull it from what Doom is all about, demons vs slayer."
