DOOM: The Dark Ages Unleashes Hell on All Platforms

Bethesda’s brutal prequel to DOOM Eternal is now available on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC

The iconic DOOM franchise just got a massive new chapter—and it’s heading back in time. DOOM: The Dark Ages, the newest single-player installment from Bethesda and id Software, is officially out now on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam and Battle.net. It’s also launching day one on Game Pass, making it instantly accessible for subscribers.

 

A Prequel with a Vicious Twist

Set centuries before the events of DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal, The Dark Ages drops players into a blood-soaked world of medieval sci-fi chaos. You'll step into the armor of the DOOM Slayer once again—but this time in a more ancient, mythic era. Expect high-speed combat, cinematic storytelling, and environments that blend dark fantasy with futuristic tech.

From storming enemy hordes with a flail shotgun to taking the skies on a mechadragon, this is DOOM like you've never seen it before.

 Features & Gameplay Highlights

• Single-Player Only: A fully focused narrative-driven campaign.

• New Weapons & Abilities: Including heavy melee tools, siege cannons, and more.

• Epic Setpieces: Battle colossal titans in the vast, ancient city of Atlan.

• Cinematic Worldbuilding: A darker, grittier tone with more lore and cutscenes.

• Mechadragon Combat: Yes, really. You’ll ride one into battle.
