Two of gaming’s greatest first-person shooter franchises, Doom and Call of Duty, have collided in a new DLC pack for Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare II, letting players of Infinity Ward’s latest wield two of Doom’s most iconic weapons.
Doom’s Super Shotgun, first introduced in Doom II, is a quintessential video game weapon that in many ways defined what a video game shotgun was all about. Now, in Modern Warfare II and Warzone, players purchasing the game’s Doom Tracer pack for 1,800 COD Points are using the unassuming double-barreled shotgun meant to blow away demons to decimate the competition at close range. The icing on top is the fact that the weapon itself, and its reload animations, looks like it came straight out of 1994, the year Doom II released.
This has to be a top 5 bundle in #CallofDuty history… ☠️🔥☠️ https://t.co/8S1L4PueUW pic.twitter.com/tQDSWjoGdV

But that’s not the only weapon from id Software’s demon-slaying franchise that COD players can rip and tear their way through the multiplayer lobbies with. The Tracker Pack also includes the Doom chainsaw, a weapon that has appeared in every Doom game, for when encounters get up close and personal. The pack additionally includes several Doom-themed stickers, weapon charms, emblems, and a loading screen featuring artwork from 2016’s Doom reboot.
