Ever wondered what Grand Theft Auto 5 would be like if it suddenly turned into Doom 2? Well, wonder no more, because a modder has done exactly that. The mod is called Doom 2 in GTA 5 Hell On Earth (D2IGTA5HOE), and it does exactly what the name suggests: it imports DOOM2.wad into GTA 5, turning the game into a first-person shooter with demons, a minigun, and a BFG. Yes, really.
Here's how it works: you hit F9, and the game shifts from the usual third-person open-world action to a full-on Doom 2 experience. You need to provide your own .wad file, so make sure you have that handy. But here's the twist: you don't teleport to Doom 2's levels. Instead, you stay in Los Santos, roaming the streets with an arsenal of weapons from id Software's classic shooter. You can take on taxis with a super shotgun or fight cops with a plasma cannon. It's a bizarre mashup that somehow works.
And if that wasn't enough, hitting F10 activates Hell On Earth mode, where authentic Doom 2 enemies start appearing in the streets. Suddenly, you're fighting demons in the middle of a city. The modder behind this admits there's a small issue: F10 is also their button for activating flossing and Superman mode. So, playing Doom 2 GTA 5 Edition means dealing with a flossing UI taking up a quarter of the screen and random Kryptonian powers kicking in. One of those powers is super speed when sprinting, which is at least fitting for Doom Guy.
The result is pure chaos, as you can see in a gif of the modder fighting demons and armed furries at an airport with Doom 2 weapons while a tornado closes in. It's the kind of absurd crossover that only modding communities can create. The modder is on a quest to either transform GTA 5 into a PC version of GTA 6 or break it entirely, and this latest experiment definitely pushes the boundaries.
So, what do you think? Would you try this mod, or is it too much even for you? Let us know in the comments!
