It’s been over six months since the release ofDoom Eternaland since that time, the game has taken much of the gaming community by storm. With how much success the game managed to achieve in such a short amount of time, the next logical step and one that many fans wanted the developers to take, was create additional content forDoom Eternalin the form of DLC. With the DLC campaign,The Ancient Gods, releasing in just a few days, the game’s composer has decided to tease fans of the series with a new music track.
Mick Gordon was the composer ofDoom (2016)and did some work onDoom Eternal. The soundtrack ofDoom (2016)was well received by many who played the game, and is considered by many to be one of its best aspects. However, Gordon does not have any hand in the soundtrack forThe Ancient GodsDLC. Shortly after the game’s release, the composer said it wasunlikely that he would return for futureDoomsequels, due to a falling out with Id Software.

For some this is unfortunate, but despite Gordon’s limited involvement with the game, many fans still enjoyed theDoom Eternalsoundtrack. The new DLC campaign features two new composers, Andrew Hulshult and David Levy. Hulshult, in response to the officialDoom EternalTwitter page asking if he had anything to “test the speakers,” posted a twenty second clip that showed off new music for the campaign. While brief, the clip did a good job of illustrating what to expect in terms of music forThe Ancient Gods.
It will be interesting to see not only how different the music is in the DLC campaign compared to the main game, but also what kinds of things fans can expect from this new campaign. The previousDoomtitle did not feature any sort of extensive DLC likeThe Ancient Gods, so it will be interesting to see whatfeatures are included in theDoom EternalDLC and which aren’t.
In any case, this clip is a nice tease and hopefully a good indication of what’s to come with the DLC campaign. There are a lot of hopes for whatThe Ancient Godsmight bring, but one thing that it is known for isDoom Eternal’ssecret areas. It’s possible that the campaign could also include additional secrets and Easter eggs for players to find.
Doom Eternalis available now for PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One with Nintendo Switch, PS5, and Xbox Series X ports currently in development.
