“I think [Christopher] Nolan did it the best, and we thought about that. It wasn’t ‘Dark Knight 1, Dark Knight 2, Dark Knight 3.’ Each one had its own name, but there was an arc there. They were all connected, as is this game as a sequel to [Doom] 20

With Doom first hitting MS-DOS in 1993, calling the 2016 reboot Doom caused some confusion among fandom. Executive producer Marty Stratton said how he wanted to try something different when it came to Doom Etern
Interestingly, Doom Eternal still has a Hell on Earth vibe as the recent QuakeCon gameplay trailer showed the ruins of an apocalyptic Earth alongside the Martian moon of Phobos.

During one of DOOM 2016’s more memorable sequences, VEGA calmly guides the Slayer through the process of shutting him down and essentially killing him to power one last trip to Hell.

Considering that Doom II went on to be the best-selling game of 1994 in the United States and the third best-selling title between 1993 and 1999, Doom Eternal has a lot to live up to when it comes to the legacy of Doom sequels .
