Doom: The Dark Ages, the upcoming first-person shooter from id Software, is getting closer to release. The game will launch on May 15 for PlayStation 5, Xbox, and PC. Game director Hugo Martin has shared new information and gameplay details, giving fans a look at a brand-new world called the Cosmic Realm.
According to Hugo, Doom: The Dark Ages is the biggest and best Doom game they’ve ever made. It has 22 action-filled levels focused on story, combat, and exploration. One of the most exciting new features is the Cosmic Realm, a strange and dark place filled with huge, scary buildings and powerful monsters. This new area is very different from anything seen in previous Doom games.
In the story, something terrible has happened. Hell has joined forces with the Cosmic Realm, creating new and dangerous enemies. One of these is the Cosmic Baron, a large enemy with two blades and deadly powers. He can attack from a distance and block your shots. But skilled players can find the right time to parry his attacks and hit back. Another powerful enemy is the new version of the Cacodemon, which now has both Hell and Cosmic Realm powers. It can use shields and tentacles to stop you if you get too close.
To fight these strong enemies, players will get new weapons like the Reaver Chainshot. This is a heavy iron weapon that can be fired quickly for fast hits, or charged up for a powerful long-range strike. It’s a new type of weapon never seen in an id Software game before. The team says it feels amazing to use and looks great in action.
The game uses the new idTech 8 engine, which brings better graphics, bigger maps, and more enemies on the screen. It runs at 60 frames per second and includes ray tracing, a feature that makes lighting look more realistic. This means the game won’t just feel smooth—it will also look stunning on both PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Pro.
