UPGRADES:

- Armor pickups buffed while Ammo pickups more common.

The new DOOM Eternal gameplay overhaul mod also brings tweaks to weapons.

Shotgun - Moderately faster rate of fire, increased damage.
Double Barrel - Increased damage.
- Alternate firing modes of most weapons listed above buffed.

Plenty of DOOM Eternal mods have been released in the past few weeks. A couple of days back, a very useful mod that removes the low-health red screen tint has been released online, considerably improving visibility while in low-health. The same modder released, earlier this month, a mod that improves particle effects.

Increases the duration and amount of particle effects for all player weapons and several explosion effects while also increasing the light radius of all player weapon lights to make them feel more dynamic/interactive with the environment.

DOOM Eternal is now available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One worldwide. The game will also launch on Nintendo Switch on a yet to be confirmed release date.
