Doom Eternal is going bigger than its predecessor in every way: more demons, more ways to kill them, and more game to play. Creative director Hugo Martin confirmed that Doom Eternal “is a 22-plus hour game” in an interview with GameSpot . The average reported playtime for Doom 2016 on How Long To Beat is 11 and a half hours, meaning that Id Software is aiming to make Doom Eternal about twice as long as the first.

In a further attempt to shake up the template of many of its key franchises, Ubisoft is reportedly restructuring its “editorial team”, an influential group of creatives that influence the company’s various projects.
