When you are finally ready to ponder how to win the final level in "Doom 3," it is bittersweet. "Doom 3" was a fun ride from start to finish with an engaging story and nonstop action. Games that have you questioning whether you should use the chainsaw or the shotgun to take out a horde of demons are beautiful things. The final level in "Doom 3" is not much of a level at all, but it does include one last challenging boss fight.

To win the final level in "Doom 3," you will need:

  • A steady hand
  • The Soul Cube
  1. Waltz into hell. Before you spend too much time worrying about how to win the final level in "Doom 3," the game makes you walk around to build up suspense. When you get off the lift, you will see a ton of ammunition down there. In "Doom 3," tons of available ammunition can only mean one thing. A massive brawl lies ahead, so grab it all. Keep moving forward and in the Chamber of the Hero grab the med kit. Go behind the sarcophagus and grab the backpack of ammunition. The wall will crumble apart, revealing a path. Keep moving forward and another wall will fall apart. Step inside and the floor begins to descend.
  2. Save yourself. As you traverse this path, you will find it gets quite narrow and menacing. The game is saying if you want to win the final level in "Doom 3," prepare yourself now and look for the save. It is not in an obvious spot, so keep walking until you find a room divided by a wall. Go left. Look for the ID logo on a brick and touch it to activate a PDA. Save your game and go to the other side to meet the last boss.
  3. Cyberdemon killing basics. There is only one way to win the final level in "Doom 3" and that is to destroy the boss with the Soul Cube; it is the only weapon that works. You received the Soul Cube when you killed Guardian of Hell. The thing with the Soul Cube is you need to charge it by killing lesser demons before you can fire it. You will be mobbed by imps and sometimes maggots in the final level. Since they spawn quickly, many weapons are too cumbersome to use, so try the chainsaw. The damage you take is minimal and you can fire the Soul Cube faster.
  4. Keep away. What you want to do when you enter the room is always keep at least one-third of the ring away from the boss so he does not stomp you. Do not fall off the ring into the lava. To charge your Soul Cube, you will notice imps and maggots spawn from the hell gate. Just keep taking them out to charge the Soul Cube and when it is ready, use it on the boss; you will have to hit him four or five times.
