Doom: The Dark Ages will be available on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PS5 (PlayStation 5) on May 15, 2025. Developed by id Software, Doom: The Dark Ages is the prequel to Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal that tells an epic cinematic story of the DOOM Slayer’s rage. In this third installment of the modern Doom series, players will step into the blood-stained boots of the Doom Slayer, in this never-before-seen dark and sinister medieval war against Hell.

What I loved so much about Doom 2016 was the fantastic mix of exploration, secrets, and combat. Eternal felt like it gave the middle finger to exploration and secrets and was like - let’s go with combat, combat, and combat. I hope this one can restore the balance a little. Doom needs breathers and exploration and a little story in between the carnage.

Eh, I'm a bit mixed on this.

This game looks very slow paced compared to not only Eternal, but DOOM 2016 as well. Maybe it's just a "make the game look slow for the trailer" thing, but it looks kinda weird for a DOOM game.

Maybe my opinion is also just tainted a bit by not forgetting how poorly ID treated Mick Gordon, and how badly they fucked him over. I can't pretend like that didn't happen.

How the fuck can they keep making Doomguy look even more badass with every game?

I'm looking forward to seeing how the design / mechanics end up differing between Doom (2016) / Doom Eternal / Doom: The Dark Ages
