Sources say in the footage, the hero blasts hell-beasts, alternating various weapons with melee attacks that remove limbs like wings off a chicken just removed from the oven. Also, at the end of the demo, the hero cuts through the humanoid demons with a chainsaw in a variety of angles to show that for him, dismemberment isn't a job — it's a craft.
According to reports, the new Doom runs on the id Tech 6 game engine, and it's the first game to do so. The engine and the game look noticeably better than id Tech 5 games, like Rage and the most recent reboot of Wolfenstein.
Furthermore, Doom will feature multiplayer, which was briefly shown in a teaser trailer. Doom will also include Doom Snapmap, a tool that seeks to make modding accessible to every player. According to the footage shown, new maps and modes are created with building block-like features.
