Doom Eternal is one of the most high-octane, action-packed first-person shooters of this generation, second only to Doom 2016. With id Software's hellscape being available for under $20, it's not surprising that it's continuing to win fans over, both those who remember the classics and those who are experiencing the series for the first time. However, the game recently had an update, which seems to have subtly reinstated something that was removed in a previous patch.

According to PC Gamer, the latest Doom Eternal update changes the main menu music. Fans noticed in the Ancient Gods Part Two DLC update that Mick Gordon's original track for the menu had been swapped out for some new music. While the new track was still well-received by fans, many were curious as to what happened to Gordon's. With this latest update, it seems as though concerns have been alleviated, as id Software put the original back in without much fanfare. Bethesda itself has yet to say why the tracks were swapped in the first place.

Doom's Ancient Gods Part Two was released on March 18, with an official release trailer showing off the new campaign in which the Doom Slayer, often colloquially referred to as Doom Guy, takes on his evil doppelgänger, the Dark Lord. It was through this update that Gordon's music was changed, and while there are no certainties as to why this was the case, there have been some concerns about tensions between the composer and the studio.

While the heavy metal musician has worked with Bethesda for a number of years, a story emerged last year which said that Gordon is unlikely to continue working with the company on any future projects. It was not made clear exactly why he was severing ties with the publisher, and with id Software, though fans speculate that it could be related to the Doom Eternal soundtrack, which Gordon contributed towards, but was considered to have low-quality mixing. The rumors state that Bethesda may have not given Gordon enough time to properly mix it, which could be where the spat originates from.

Whatever the case may be, his main menu music has now returned to the game. Doom Eternal is known for its beastly soundtrack, which showcases Mick Gordon's talents as a musician who can create the right music for this high-octane title. It's a shame he may not be working on future id/Bethesda games, but at least his track has been reinstated with this latest update.

Doom Eternal is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
