Known Issues - ALL platforms
- Issue: In DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods - Part One, I've noticed that Spirits sometimes leave a combat encounter without taking another host before all remaining demons are killed. What can I do about this?
- Game may crash after skipping the Facility Destruction cinematic after the Marauder fight in UAC Atlantica. Do not skip this cutscene to avoid this issue. This will be fixed in a future update.
- Entering water immediately after a checkpoint save can generate a bad state if the player exits the game before reaching another checkpoint. Avoid closing the game while in water if possible. The player’s weapons will disappear if the game is forcibly closed in this unusual situation.
- In rare situations the player can remain swimming when getting out of the water. Walk back into and mantle out of the water to fix. Changing to the Classic weapon pose, entering and exiting the water and reverting to your previous weapon pose also fixes the issue.
Known Issues - Steam Only
- Issue: I'm a Steam customer who owns DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods – Part One or DOOM Eternal Year One Pass. When I click on the "Go Now" button to purchase the original DOOM Eternal, I'm taken to the Steam store home page. Is there anything I can do about this?

Known Issues - ALL platforms
Campaign- Master Levels are not accessible via the Fortress of DOOM terminal. Until a fix is implemented, you can access Master Levels from the Main Menu/Campaign/Master Level interface.
- In rare cases, you may encounter player camera issues when reloading a checkpoint from the Pause Menu. Until a fix is implemented, you will need to reload a save or restart the level to resolve this issue.
- Backing out of a Party while playing the campaign on Ultra Nightmare difficulty causes the Party Tab in the Social menu to lose functionality. Until a fix is implemented, exiting, and reloading the campaign at a different difficulty will resolve the issue.
- Reloading a checkpoint or exiting to the Main Menu shortly after unlocking Fast Travel for any level may result in Fast Travel becoming unavailable. Until a fix is implemented, avoid using Fast Travel until you have completed a level entirely.
- The "Extinction Level Slayer” and “Aggressive Transfusion” Milestones can only be completed in Campaign. This will be fixed in an upcoming update.
- Resetting customized Demon controls to Default only resets the Archvile controls. Until a fix is implemented, you’ll need to manually reset custom controls for all other Demons.
- In very rare circumstances, when loading into BATTLEMODE matches users will spawn outside the gameplay arena. Restart the game to resolve this issue.
- Kicking a player from a BATTLEMODE match and then disconnecting can result in the player’s podium being replaced by the podium of the player who was kicked. Exit the lobby to resolve this issue.
- In rare circumstances, BATTLEMODE parties can end up in a bad state, presenting party members with repeating error messages. This issue can be resolved by recreating the party.
- After a matchmaking failure, BATTLEMODE menu options can appear as inaccessible in certain circumstances. Restart the title to regain access to all menu options.
BATTLEMODE Known Issues - Xbox One Only
- Xbox One players may encounter the social menu appearing in front of the BATTLEMODE lobby menu when loading into a private match. This issue will self-resolve.
