Bethesda announced on April 6 that an open public beta will be held for the upcoming Doom beginning on April 15, which will last through the 17th. This open beta will contain the same content as the previous alphas and closed beta: two maps from the game's multiplayer component. Also included were announcements of three multiplayer DLC packs which will be available at launch containing items such as maps, weapons, player skin and weapon decals and colors, and an additional transformation for the demon rune. These packs will start at US $14.99 each, and will be available combined for $39.99 via a "Season Pass" option. It was also mentioned that both multiplayer and the SnapMap built-in editor will receive free updates with additional content after the game's release.
