----= FINAL VERSION =---- [Video playthrough playlist link in description]
All the kids are talking about the holiday season’s hottest line of action figures: the Decorate-Breakin’ Kringles. Too bad they’re sold out on this planet! If Doomguy doesn’t want to disappoint his baby Cacodemon, he’s going to have to jingle all the way across the galaxy for some ultra-last-minute shopping. Of course, getting his hands on the last remaining DBK figurines might require getting a little aggressive—especially when there's an intergalactic shopping frenzy breaking out! Go elbow-to-elbow with toy-scalping alien bastards, merchandise-mad Spaceballs, and the universe's deadliest Christmas tree in DBK02: The DBK Holiday Special!
With this the final version get ready for bug fixes, thoroughly tested difficulty settings, and visual improvements galore. But that's not all! We've got a brand-new boss map and a secret bonus map to round out the experience!
