Doom Eternal cheats: All codes & where to find them

As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that this guide is nothing short of a treasure trove for any Doom fan out there! With these instructions, you can unlock an array of cheats that will make your gaming experience even more exciting and unpredictable.

Using Doom Eternal cheats can provide an entertaining means to replay the game while anticipating the launch of Doom: The Dark Ages.

In this action-packed game, you’ll discover secret shortcuts hidden within the gameplay. To activate these, you’ll first have to locate and unveil them.

Some shortcuts provide unlimited additional lives, open up every Praetor Suit bonus feature, and there’s even one that simulates a hidden crowd cheering for you and your actions – this particular one really makes us feel valued.

Continue on to discover methods for employing cheats within Doom Eternal, as well as uncovering the positions where the cheat codes can be found.

How to use cheats in Doom Eternal

In Doom Eternal, before you can utilize cheat codes, you must initially unlock them (details provided later). Once unlocked, you can enable these cheats either during Mission Selection or on the game’s main menu. However, it’s important to note that cheats are only functional in missions you have already conquered.

Here are a couple of options for paraphrasing that aim to be natural and easy to understand:

If you can’t find the option, it means you haven’t yet unlocked any cheats.

Employing shortcuts is an effective method for re-experiencing missions and locating hidden collectibles without any hindrance to your achievement/trophy progression.

Unfortunately, all Slayer Gates will be disabled with just one cheat activated.

All Doom Eternal cheats and where to find them

All told, you’ll come across a total of 15 hidden secrets, or cheat codes, in the game Doom Eternal. You can find twelve of these either as collectible items inside missions or within your main base, known as The Fortress of Doom.

On the map, they’ll show up as query symbols, with three of them becoming accessible once you finish various parts of the game.

To successfully activate each cheat code, it’s essential to know their locations and the methods required to access them. Typically, this involves performing skillful jumps or breaks through destructible walls.

Lucky for you, a helpful video by MKIceAndFire on YouTube demonstrates the locations of every cheat code in Doom Eternal, along with instructions on how to reach them. Additionally, the video showcases gameplay featuring each activated cheat code. Give it a look here:
