Despite some superficial similarities to Doom 3, the gameplay in this Doom is significantly different from its predecessor. The game is faster-paced, with sprinting, double jumping, and mantling being possible.[2] The Doomguy is faster than almost every demon in the game, and it is intended that movement is the key to both offense and defense.[4] Unlike in Doom 3, Doomguy is equipped to go out onto the surface of Mars, which has been partially terraformed in this reboot, and the planet's weaker gravity becomes a feature of the game, with Doomguy able to make large jumps, climb steep objects, and take relatively large falls with no damage.
