 +In the gaming community, the soundtracks of DOOM Eternal and DOOM (2016) have reached a somewhat legendary status, with DOOM (2016) even being awarded Best Soundtrack at the Game Awards. For DOOM Eternal, Mick Gordon has again combined guitars with synthesizers to create a sound that is unique to DOOM and at the same time hones its heritage, that being the original DOOM soundtrack.

 All of the weapons in DOOM Eternal use sound as a way of describing their power; each and every weapon feels strong and unwieldy. Of course, all of this goes into the power-fantasy that is prevalent in DOOM. Each gun uses a deafening bass to convey the power it posesses and to some extent the power of the DOOM Slayer himself. All of the weapons in DOOM Eternal use sound as a way of describing their power; each and every weapon feels strong and unwieldy.

They inform the player if the gun is ready to fire and are easily distinguishable. Most of the sounds try to simulate the physicality of their respective weapons and that seems to have been the main goal when they were designed.

-The **Double Jump** gives the player an audio response when triggering it. On one part, you can hear a high pitched beep, on the other you hear a bass thump. This is also a hint that the DOOM Slayer uses some kind of air burst to propell himself into the air, which would certainly trigger a booming sound.+The **Double Jump** gives the player an audio response when triggering it.

-**Dash**+The **Dash** is similar to the double jump: A high pitched noise combined with a soft but bassy boom. Also, there is a feedback sound when the dash can be used again.

 +The **Head Pop** sound is one of my favourites. While certainly being comical in a way, it rewards the player with a satisfying popping sound if he manages to kill a low-level demon with a headshot.

 +
 +What is clear is the effort that went into making these. Each single enemy has a whole library of different sounds it cycles through. It also reacts to its circumstances (for example if it is hit). Every enemy sounds real. Every sound is layered, each scream consists of high screeches and guttural growls. This ends up making each enemy scary and creepy. Most of the time, you will be hearing a combination of screams from each enemy, but only when you face a single one in a more quiet setting does it really become spine-chilling.
 +
 +===== Summary =====
 +
 +Surely, sound design has come a long way. With Mick Gordon leading the way for the music, Id Softwares team has done an exceptional job in giving this sequel of a cult classic a fantastic sound. Every single sound points towards and reinforces what this game is about: Power, violence, bloodlust. Of course, the game is in a way self-ironic about its hyperviolent presentation and this is reflected in the sound as well; it can be a bit over the top. But for a game like DOOM Eternal, its exactly fitting.
