DOOM: The Dark Ages is a prequel to the 2016 Doom and Doom Eternal reboots, jumping back in time to the last time Slayer Doom was out to slay demons. You’ll go completely medieval on these demons, which will include a mix of very familiar enemies from the series, as well as some brand recent enemies.
So… what do you need to defeat these brand recent enemies? Well, some all recent weapons! This time you’re able to pull out the membranes to throw in some heads, or discard the shield to throw chain chains like Captain America’s motorized shield. It can block, eject, parry, and deflect, all with a single contextual input.
Where Doom Eternal was all about acrobatic FPS combat, ID software claims that Dark Ages will make you feel more like a tank, where strafing and ground play is much more rewarding. The flat shield will live like the left hand, with the gun on the right.
There are actually three melee weapons that will appear dynamically, will be useful for Combost, Finishers and a recent glory kill system that can also be used with a different single button input.
But sometimes you have to go even bigger. Slayer will also be able to jump into the cockpit of his Atlan, a huge jumper-sized mech that will let you go toe-to-toe with Kaiju-sized demons, as well as a dragon mech with thrusters and huge thrusters and a huge amount of weapons for when you need to get down to business sky. Both promise to have improvements and a broader experience around them instead of being one of them.
Of course.

The game will take players to multiple worlds and environments that are more than just combat, but can also be explored to find secrets, upgrades, and more. You can do all this and then return to the main focus of the level to face huge enemies.
After the decline surrounding the production of the soundtrack for Doom Eternal – which will not be a religion – the soundtrack for Doom: The Dark Ages was made by finishing the move to give another metal soundscape to really sink in.
Built into the game is a more detailed difficulty system that allows you to sink things up and down, speeding up the game or slowing it down to suit your needs and preferences.
The release date news has been confirmed days after it was leaked in advance. Fortunately, that’s not all it had to show off, the Xbox Developer_Direct stream, and Software ID delves into what makes this game tick.
There were also more games in 2025. We visited Compulsory Games to talk South of Midnight, Sandfall Interactive to look at Clair Obsurpur: Expedition 33, and the surprise that was Ninja Gaiden 4 and Ninja Gaiden 2 Black.
