At some point in 2025 there will be fat demon grimacing again with Doom: The Dark Ages. Bethesda still doesn't give us an exact release date, but that's no problem: there are busy leakers who have now given out at least a rough time frame.
Even in the dark Middle Ages, hellish demons didn't have much to laugh about, at least according to Bethesda and id Software. Because Doom: The Dark Ages will send you back in time sometime in 2025 and tell the story of the 2016 reboot of Doom.
Apart from the year, we unfortunately don't know when Doom: The Dark Ages is supposed to be released. Now there is a fresh leak from Xbox insider “extas1s”. In the past he was often right with his information and forecasts.
>> 10 crazy facts about DOOM: You probably didn't know that!
If he is correct this time too, then Doom: The Dark Ages will be released in May 2025. This is quite interesting, as there is hardly any information or moving image material about the title so far.
Aside from acting as a prequel, we know that the pace of the game will be slowed down a bit. You have to dodge enemy projectiles significantly more, which is why they fly towards you more slowly.
What's particularly nice for Sony fans is the fact that Doom: The Dark Ages is also appearing on PlayStation 5. After Microsoft's takeover of Bethesda, this is not a given.
According to Phil Spencer, there wasn't much discussion internally about the multiplatform release. The series has always been available on a variety of platforms, a conversation with id Software's studio director Marty Stratton closed the bag and the release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and the PC was set.
In Doom: The Dark Ages you will find yourself in the Dark Ages. This first trailer introduces the new part of the series.
