Bethesda Softworks surprised fans with a new DOOM: The Dark Ages cinematic trailer released late Sunday night during Easter weekend. The trailer quickly gathered half a million views within hours on YouTube. This trailer focuses mainly on story elements, matching what developers at id Software previously shared about plot having greater importance in this game than in previous DOOM titles.

Game director Marty Stratton described the upcoming release as their most expansive DOOM game ever. Players will experience large sandbox environments rather than linear paths, with multiple objectives that can be completed in any order. Creative director Hugo Martin mentioned simplifying game currencies based on lessons learned from DOOM Eternal, making progression more straightforward for players.

Writer Chris Wray tested the game last month and praised its more open battlefield design that never feels constrained. He noted that the game keeps the fast combat style from DOOM Eternal, where finishing enemies provides health and ammo rewards. DOOM: The Dark Ages launches May 15 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X with PC versions supporting NVIDIA DLSS 4 Frame Generation and path tracing. Rumors suggest a Nintendo Switch 2 version might appear later, similar to how previous DOOM games came to the original Switch.
