Very exciting. I loved Doom 2016, loved Doom Eternal, enjoyed the DLCs and am eager to see what they'll do in the sequel.

early details of the next entry into the DOOM franchise, which was described to me as a ‘medieval inspired doom world’.

Sounds more like Quake, actually.

I can't blame them at all if they want to throw some Quake in there too after kicking ass with Doom for almost 10 years in a row.

I remember the game director saying he doesnt want to make the same game twice (when they made eternal focus on using the right weapons and not just shotgun everythign) so this likely a new spin on doom formula again

Hmm. I liked 2016 because you could play it however you wanted. Eternal was too arcadey. I hope this one isn't.

Might also be a return to the Heretic series.

This would make me so happy
