That's quite the step up over Doom 2016 tech wise. Textures alone look much more detailed and there seem to be many more lights.

Shame about no RT support at launch, I assume an update will land simultaneously for PC/Scarlett/PS5. Wolfenstein Youngblood has great ray-traced reflections.

The player is actually good.

This makes Doom 2016 look slow and clunky.
