I never played the game, so I'm not sure what SnapMap is (Fandom says it's a map editor), but there is a note in the "Details" that says SnapMap cosmetics are unlocked by default. Is that something else?
@spizzat2 It is, the cosmetics were unlockables via SnapMap, providing some ways you can customize the look of the Doom Guy/Doom Slayer.
SnapMap was Doom 2016's limited level creator basically. Not proper mod tools unfortunately, but an okay compromise compared to nothing at all.
It was what sold me on the game, but I'm a sucker for accessible level editing and the like tools in games.
SnapMap is a built-in map editor. It lets you build simple maps made of prefab rooms. It's clunky and very limited. Really nothing particularly interesting considering the history of OG Doom's decades-old fan-made map scene.
