The Doom: The Dark Ages Release Date Confirmed
The highly anticipated Doom: The Dark Ages is set to release on 15th May for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Excitingly, the game will also be available on day one with select tiers of Xbox Game Pass.
Doom: The Dark Ages serves as a prequel to the popular Doom 2016 reboot and Doom Eternal, taking players back to a time when the Doom Slayer was wreaking havoc on demons. Players can expect to encounter both familiar foes and new enemies as they embark on their demon-slaying journey.
In terms of weaponry, players will have access to new tools of destruction such as the Flail for crushing enemies and a throwable chainsaw shield that can block, parry, and deflect attacks with a single input. The combat in The Dark Ages will emphasize a more tank-like playstyle, focusing on strafing and ground-based combat.
Additionally, players will have the opportunity to pilot powerful mechs like the Atlan and Mecha Dragon to take on massive demon adversaries. These mechs offer a unique gameplay experience with upgradable features and a variety of weaponry.
The game will feature multiple worlds and environments for players to explore, uncovering secrets and upgrades along the way. The soundtrack, composed by Finish Move, promises to deliver a heavy metal soundscape to enhance the gaming experience.
Furthermore, Doom: The Dark Ages offers a customizable difficulty system, allowing players to adjust the game settings according to their preferences. The recent announcement of the release date comes after a leak, but fans can also look forward to more exciting reveals from the Xbox Developer_Direct stream.
