The Doomhunter is a new monster which first occurs in Doom Eternal. It is a half-demon, half-mechanical monstrosity, reminiscent of Sabaoth, armed with multiple weapons, including a large cannon, a dual-bladed chainsaw, two forward-facing guns which likely fire plasma projectiles, and a multiple-launch missile system. It hovers and moves via jets that fire below and behind it. It has been referred to as an "arch-nemesis" of the Doom Slayer by id Software. A voice-over from a mysterious antagonist indicates that the Doomhunter is an ancient type of demon specifically created to hunt the Doom Slayer, that its present form was designed by a force outside of Hell itself, and that it now serves this different, albeit seemingly aligned force.
