New game modes in Doom
Exodus is one of the two new game modes that are set to provide more variety and a bit more chaos on the various maps. In terms of gameplay, Exodus is a Capture-The-Flag mode where the goal is to capture a flag. The unique aspect of this mode is that bases and flags are constantly moving, changing the routes continuously.Sector is the second new game mode of today’s update. It is a Capture-And-Hold or control point mode where you must capture and hold points. As mentioned, both game modes will be playable on the existing and future maps.

In addition to the SnapMap changes, such as the customizable weapon wheel and jump pads where you can set direction, distance, and speed, there will be an expanded weapon list.
