The chainsaw returns in the 2016 reboot of Doom as a brutal melee weapon, now for the first time featuring the ability to completely dismember, decapitate, and cut completely through enemies. It features a dramatic appearance with a sharp, blade-like metallic chain guard, has a chain studded with savage razors, and harkens back to the original design with a bright yellow coloration. It is a forbidden black market item at the Argent facility due to its lack of practical uses on Mars and an apparent attraction it to people intending to do sadistic damage. As such, it was subject to confiscation by UAC security before the facility was invaded by the forces of Hell.[1]

Upgrades

Super chainsaw
It is currently unknown if the "super chainsaw" is the base form of the weapon, or a more powerful upgrade over the normal chainsaw.
