In a new twist for the iconic first-person shooter series, Doom returns to the scene with a medieval setting. This latest installment functions as a prequel to recent games, and if you’re eager to fight off demons once more, mark your calendars for when Doom: The Dark Ages is scheduled to launch.

As a hardcore gamer, diving into The Dark Ages feels like stepping into a fresh take on the classic Doom universe. Instead of just gunning down hordes of demons, this time I’ve got a badass shield to protect myself too. And the best part? The game creatively blends elements from sci-fi and medieval fantasy worlds, making every battle a unique, adrenaline-pumping experience!

In the U.S., it’s set for release on May 14th, but similar to numerous contemporary games, if you purchase the Premium Edition, you can start playing a few days ahead.
