Witness The Gory Action in the ‘DOOM: The Dark Ages’ Launch Trailer [Video]

It won’t be long before players will be able to rip and tear huge guts in DOOM: The Dark Ages. Ahead of the game’s launch on May 15 (or, if you spring for the Premium Edition, you can enjoy it two days early), Bethesda and id Software have released the customary launch trailer for the single-player focused FPS.

DOOM: The Dark Ages is the prequel to the critically acclaimed DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal that tells the epic cinematic origin story of the Doom Slayer’s rage. In this third installment of the modern DOOM series, players will step into the blood-stained boots of the Doom Slayer, in this never-before-seen dark and sinister medieval war against Hell.

As the super weapon of gods and kings, you’ll shred enemies with devastating favorites like the Super Shotgun while also wielding a variety of new bone-chewing weapons, including the new Shield Saw. Players will stand and fight on the demon-infested battlefields in the vicious, grounded combat the original DOOM is famous for. Take flight atop the new fierce Mecha Dragon, stand tall in a massive Atlan mech, and beat demons to a pulp with the newly enhanced glory kill system.

Bound to serve as the super weapon of gods and kings, the Doom Slayer fends off demon hordes as their leader seeks to destroy the Slayer and become the only one that is feared. Witness the creation of a legend as the Slayer takes on all of Hell and turns the tide of the war. In his quest to crush the legions of Hell, the Slayer must take the fight to never-before-seen realms. Mystery, challenges, and rewards lurk in every shadow of ruined castles, epic battlefields, dark forests, ancient hellscapes, and worlds beyond.

DOOM: The Dark Ages will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and the PC via Steam. The game will also be available for Xbox Game Pass. And look out for Aaron’s review later this week!
