The Ancient Gods, Part One is the first single-player downloadable content expansion for Doom Eternal, and is currently available as a pre-order item to purchasers of the Year One Pass. While some details appeared on the Steam store page for the season pass previously, the expansion was officially announced by Bethesda during the QuakeCon at Home stream on Twitch on August 7, 2020, with release of a teaser trailer. A full reveal is scheduled to follow during the GamesCom Opening Night Live event on August 27.[1]

Story

Spoiler Warning: Plot details follow.

Following the Doom Slayer's defeat of the Khan Maykr and the Icon of Sin and the salvation of Earth, the Slayer returns to Urdak to find the former paradise in ruins and under the control of Hell's demons. The Father, now fully restored, recognizes that the Slayer has returned to restore the rightful order and end what he refers to as a "threat to all of (his) creations."

Spoilers end here.

New enemies

Some new enemies have appeared in promotional materials for the expansion, but few details are currently available:

  • Fallen Maykr angels wearing red armor and possessing demonic horns, able to fly and attack with their staves. They can charge up their energy in a cruciform display.
  • A ghostly "nightmare" variant of the summoner from Doom (2016).
