In a thrilling reveal, id Software has announced DOOM: The Dark Ages, a new installment that promises to revolutionize the iconic Doom series. Scheduled for release in 2025, this single-player action FPS will blend dark fantasy with the brutal, fast-paced combat that Doom fans adore.

A Glimpse into a Darker Era

DOOM: The Dark Ages introduces players to a medieval world under siege by demonic forces. As the DOOM Slayer, players will confront cybernetic dragons and legions of demons that have pushed a kingdom to the brink of destruction. This prequel to DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal explores the origin of the Slayer's rage, tracing his transformation from the last hope of a crumbling kingdom to the ultimate nemesis of Hell.

Revolutionary Gameplay and Graphics 

The game expands the Doom universe with new gameplay mechanics and the latest idTech engine, promising a visually stunning and intensely engaging experience. Players will have at their disposal an arsenal that includes traditional weapons like the Super Shotgun and new additions such as the Shield Saw and the Flail. These weapons enhance the Slayer's capabilities, allowing for a mix of ranged attacks and visceral close-combat action.

Epic Battles and New Challenges

In DOOM: The Dark Ages, battles take on an epic scale. Players can command colossal machines like the Atlan, a towering mech, and even take to the skies on the back of a Mecha Dragon. These new elements promise to deliver a gameplay experience that's not only about shooting but also about strategic destruction and aerial combat.

About the Developer: Originally emerging as a small, innovative team, id Software, the creators of Doom, rapidly evolved beyond their indie roots. Following their groundbreaking success, they were acquired by ZeniMax Media in 2009 and later became part of Microsoft's Xbox Game Studios in 2021. Today, id Software is recognized as a major force in the gaming industry, continually pushing the boundaries of technology and gameplay with each new release.

Coming to All Major Platforms

DOOM: The Dark Ages is one of the most anticipated games of 2025. Fans are encouraged to add the game to their wishlist on platforms like the Microsoft Store, PlayStation Network, and Steam to not miss out on what promises to be a groundbreaking addition to the Doom legacy.
