Doom Eternal too dark

Hello @AllanNewman,I hope everything is going well!

Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support!

I highly recommend following the troubleshooting steps here:

After each step try to see if the issue is fixed!

First, hold down the power button for about 10 seconds, until the console shuts off, then unplug the power cord and wait for 2 to 3 minutes before plugging it back in and turn on the Xbox.

If the issue persists, please select System > Settings > devices and streaming > blue ray > persistent storage > clear three times > restart console.

If you are still having the same issue, please follow these steps :

1. Check that the HDMI cable connections to your console and to your TV are secure
   
2. Check that the HDMI cable is connected to the "out to TV" port on the console
   
3. Try plugging the HDMI cable into a different HDMI port on your TV
   
4. Try using a different HDMI cable to connect your console to your TV
   

If you are still encountering the same issue, please select System > Settings > System > Console info > Select Reset console > Choose reset and keep my games and apps.

I wish you a lovely day, and I hope this helps you out!

Kind regards

Stay safe, and happy gaming

Dark Souls was extremely frustrating to say the least lol. DOOM Eternal prove to be difficult aswell.

I'm happy someone mentioned DOOM 3. :-D I'm very surprised nobody mentioned
Eternal Darkness.

I was able to solve this. My Xbox app on PC showed a new update for Doom Eternal. But clicking Update in that app didn't do anything.

On opening the Microsoft Store and going to updates, it listed the Doom Eternal update along with a few others. I did a Update all and to my surprise all apps, except Doom Eternal got updated and it remained in my queue.

Then I clicked Get Updates. It found a few more apps to update and this time Doom Eternal update started downloading too. No idea what the trigger is though.

Doom soon to be Doom eternal
