Horde Mode comes to Doom Eternal next week alongside 6.66 update

It's almost here.

Doom Eternal’s Update 6.66 is coming soon and it will feature the long-awaited Horse Mode.

Originally revealed during this year’s QuakeCon panel, this update promises to be one of the game’s biggest yet. Along with Horde Mode, you can also expect enhancements to competitive 2v1 Battlemode which will feature a new arena and streak-based rewards and more.
