I know this will excite many of you. DOOM: The Dark Ages has been announced today and it will arrive on Steam in 2025. Get ready for more ripping and tearing.
Oh, and this time you’ve got some fun toys to play with like the Atlan, a “daunting skyscraper-sized mech capable of toppling Hell’s behemoths with titanic metal fists” and a Mecha Dragon to fly around on too.
And Doomguy has a shield (is he a coward?) and a morgenstern-hook like on Ethernal’s shotgun for more scripted actions, and probably more QTEs. And they dive deep into the ‘lore’ of Doom showing us some of his previous incarnation, so await cutscenes and tell-don’t-show about how gorgeous the Doomguy is instead of you actually being him.
Good good boomer shooter genre is here and old games are still accessible. Probably Machine Heads who remastered Quake and added their own episodes are more equipped to do real Doom games than the remains of Id.
