DOOM

DOOM (2016) is id Software's revival of the franchise with fast, aggressive FPS combat built around constant movement and resource pickup through 'glory kills' on staggered enemies. The campaign spans 13 levels with a metal soundtrack and is included with all DLC. Multiplayer modes were added in updates. It marked a deliberate departure from cover-based modern shooters.
