Helix is a multiplayer level in Doom (2016), one of the nine original stock multiplayer maps. Themed after the Lazarus Labs level from the single-player campaign, Bethesda state that "this is where they experiment on demons and develop advanced weaponry", and indicate that it is perfect for a round of Clan Arena.

Analysis

Helix features a number of open rooms joined by curved corridors, centering on two large chambers that contain tanks holding the torso of a Baalgar demon and artifacts resembling the Helix Stone. A quad damage (and more rarely a chainsaw) can spawn on top of the Baalgar tank. A mega health can also spawn in the curved passage adjoining this room.
