DOOM Eternal first released in March 2020 to positive critic and user reviews. The game is also a commercial success, having earned over $450 million in revenue already.
“We want to thank our millions of fans for their enthusiastic support of this amazing title,” Bethesda’s senior vice president of global sales, Ron Seger, said last year. “Despite thousands of retail stores closing, we are pleased so many fans have been able to enjoy DOOM Eternal.”
