DOOM Eternal is getting post-launch support even one year after launch. The developer released a small patch yesterday that addressed bugs and other issues in the game. This update doesn’t add the newly announced Horde Mode and any new Master Level, however. The only thing it does is fix bugs on different platforms.
From now on, the bullets in the game will pass through gore and ammo pickups. They won’t collide with each other anymore. The pathing issue regarding a Cacodemon in the boss encounter of The Holt in The Ancient Gods - Part One is fixed. We have mentioned the rest of the patch notes below.

DOOM Eternal is available for purchase on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Stadia, Nintendo Switch, and PC. The game has received critical reception from fans. However, don’t expect a sequel as Slayer’s story has been wrapped up. Also, there were some rumors that ID Software, the developer of DOOM, is now working on a proper Quake reboot.
