id Software has added support for mods in multiplayer mode in the new Doom + Doom II update.
The update is now available on all supported platforms (PC, PS5/PS4, Xbox One, Series X/S, and Switch). In order to play multiplayer with mods, all participants in the match must have the same mods installed. Only mods created with Vanilla DOOM, DeHackEd, MBF21, or BOOM are supported.
In addition, id has fixed some minor bugs and improved the multiplayer mode:
- spectator mode has been added when players are waiting for a respawn;
- fixed a bug where turning off the crosshairs also turned off the display of the player's name;
- fixed an issue that caused players to lose their weapons during respawning;
- the network code has been optimized;
- intermission animation now works at the correct speed in split screen mode.
We would like to remind you that id Software has recentlyshown the gameplay and talked about changing the game formula in Doom: The Dark Ages. The game will be released on May 15, 2025.
