The biggest novelty in Doom Eternal is the Horde Mode, which allows players to face waves of demons in three missions from the base and add-ons. Those interested fight for the best result and in this case we can count on three additional lives, but the daredevils can unlock more resurrection.

- Arena Round – Arena combat encounter with waves and waves of demons
- Blitz Round – Kill as many demons as you can before time runs out
- Bonus Coin Round (optional) – Collect as many coins as you can before time runs out
- Traversal Round – Navigate a traversal puzzle and collect as many coins as you can before time runs out
- Bonus Blitz Round (optional) – A Blitz round but with Super Heavy demons and Onslaught (damage multiplier) power-ups!

Players can earn many additional rewards for completing missions:
However, this is not the end of the news, as update 6.66 also introduces two new Master Levels (Mars Core and The World Spear), and in addition, players can count on the “biggest and most important” patch for BattleMode. The mode is now much more focused on the skills of the players.
