Infernal is a multiplayer level in Doom (2016), one of the nine original stock multiplayer maps. Bethesda describe it as a mid-sized Hell map with lots of platforms and chasms, along with teleporters.

Analysis

This level centers around a blood-filled cavern which neighbors a large chasm spanned by a pair of staircases. The interior sections of the level span three floors and include a mixture of pits, ledges and trenches that present opportunities for combat at any range. A number of green teleporters are dotted around the level for ambushes and escapes.

A Gauss cannon will sometimes spawn on the ledge above the teleporter in the chasm area; you must jump over the teleporter to avoid stepping on it by accident. A mega health pickup also spawns above the chasm, and you will have to jump from the nearby columns or a blood-stained doorway to get to it. Haste and quad damage powerups can also spawn in the blood-filled cavern, on a ledge next to a large bloodied skull.

Trivia

• This map in the game files is called "Blood Run"; this is most likely a reference to one of the cult duel maps from the Quake game series. It was created by Stan Uusvali, also known as ztn, as a custom map for Quake, later receiving remakes in Quake III, Quake Live, and Quake Champions.
• Infernal originally was the name of another multiplayer map that is mentioned in strings of the game, but it is absent in release.
