Overclockers UK Game of the month
Throughout 2020 we will be introducing you to an array of new releases but instead of reviews, we have opted to do something a little different. Each month we will be taking a closer look at the system requirements of the respective game and introducing you to suitable systems and relevant hardware.
Doom Eternal – the game highlight of March?
Bethesda’s Doom Eteneral is the fifth installment of the franchise and the direct sequel to Doom (2016). The game once again follows Doom Slayer battling relentless hordes of demons utilising a multitude of firearms and melee weapons. Will the ‘Slayer’ be able to save Earth and the human race from annihilation?
New Doom Eternal Game Mechanics
The demo unveiled to the public early this year revealed all-new high difficulty slayer challenges, the ability to control enemy units and additional upgrade resources. In addition to this, the game features new movement mechanics such as swinging, wall climbing and dashing.
