Wrapping up the event, we got an exciting and detailed glimpse into Doom: The Dark Ages. This intriguing game serves as a prelude to the 2016 Doom, unfolding in a captivating world that blends the futuristic with the medieval. This unique setting mirrors the game’s arsenal—a thrilling mix of ancient weaponry and modern chaos. Among these, the shield saw seized the spotlight. Imagine a Captain America shield, only juiced up with a buzzsaw edge. It’s not just for show either; you can deflect attacks or hurl it at foes, watching it carve through them as you move in with your trusty shotgun.
The creative minds at id Software also unveiled some epic battles featuring massive mechs and dragons. I have to give credit where it’s due—the Doom series has a knack for tapping into that over-the-top, doodle-on-your-notebook vibe and making it totally compelling. Gamers can mark their calendars as the game is set to release on May 15 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
