Kicking off this evening’s Xbox showcase, we got a look at Doom: The Dark Ages, and oh my days, it looks awesome.
“Before he became a hero,” the video begins, “he was the super weapon of gods and kings.” And what a super weapon he was. But, don’t let me tell you. You can check out Doom: The Dark Ages’ reveal trailer for yourself below.
Doom: The Dark Ages will serve as a prequel to 2016’s Doom and Doom Eternal. It is described as a single-player action FPS that “tells the epic cinematic origin story of the Doom Slayer’s rage”, and of course, it is being developed by id Software.
I honestly thought the platforming was a nice change of pace especially when playing on higher difficulty settings. But I can definitely see someone just waiting until they can go on a demon shooting rampage again.
