Like its predecessor, Doom Eternal invites the player to develop simple tactics. New movement mechanics such as wall-climbing, dash moves, and horizontal bars to swing from have also been introduced. Finally, killing enemies with the chainsaw will drop ammunition. In addition, there is the Flame Belch, a flamethrower that sets enemies on fire with it to drop armor pickups. The Doom Slayer's armor now includes a shoulder-mounted Equipment Launcher with the ability to lob grenades and ice bombs. The Super Shotgun is now equipped with the "Meat Hook", a ranged accessory which grabs on to enemies and slingshots the player towards them, functioning as a grappling hook, useful both in combat scenarios and environmental navigation.
The arm-blade provides the opportunity for a larger variety of quick and violent "glory kill" executions, which drop extra health. Melee weapons such as a chainsaw, the "Crucible Blade" energy sword, the Sentinel Argent Hammer (Hellbreaker), and a retractable arm-blade called the "Doomblade" can also be used. The player has access to various firearms, such as the Combat Shotgun, Super Shotgun, Heavy Cannon, Rocket Launcher, Plasma Rifle, Chaingun, BFG 9000, Ballista, and the Unmaykr.
The game continues its predecessor's emphasis on "push-forward" combat, encouraging the player to aggressively engage enemies in order to acquire health, ammo, and armor.
