In the update to drag us all to hell, Bethesda and id Software have released Doom update 6.66 which makes all of the game’s multiplayer DLC now free for those who own the game. Doom is the frenetic genre defining FPS that tasks you with repelling a demonic invasion in the most gratuitous way possible.
