Just days after Bethesda introduced official mod support for Doom Eternal, a remarkable new mod has appeared, featuring Doomguy in the classic Bob-Omb Battlefield from Super Mario 64. In this early version, Doomguy is seen wreaking havoc in the familiar Mario environment, fighting against enemies from Doom Eternal. The combination of a first-person shooter in a beloved Mario level creates a unique and striking contrast, offering a fresh take on both games.
The mod showcases a chaotic blend of Doom Eternal’s intense action with the nostalgic Mario 64 landscape. Seeing Doomguy, a character known for his brutal combat, interacting with the whimsical elements of Bob-Omb Battlefield is an unusual but entertaining sight.
The mod is still in development, with the creator acknowledging that there are several issues and improvements needed, but it effectively demonstrates the potential for creative crossovers.
For years, modders have worked on Doom Eternal unofficially, but Bethesda’s recent release of official modding tools has transformed the modding landscape. These tools, which are the same ones used to develop Doom Eternal, provide a greater degree of complexity and customization. This official support allows for more sophisticated mods and mashups, like the one showcasing Doom Eternal’s carnage in a Mario setting.
The new modding tools also streamline the process of sharing and discovering mods. With an in-game mod browser now available, players can easily explore and download new content. This improved accessibility is likely to lead to a surge in creative and diverse mods, enhancing the Doom Eternal experience in unexpected and exciting ways.
