It looks like the iconic DOOM franchise is gearing up for another adventure. Leaks have surfaced, revealing that DOOM: The Dark Ages will hit the shelves on May 15, 2025. Mark your calendars because this could be a wild ride!
The details came from an article published by Gamekult, which has since been taken down. They probably jumped in with some embargoed information right before the Xbox Developer Direct. If you’re as eager as I am, you’ll be thrilled that select media outlets will preview DOOM: The Dark Ages before its official reveal. Speaking of reveals, the Xbox Developer Direct is set for January 23rd. Can you believe how packed that day will be? Not only are we getting a sneak peek at DOOM, but we’ll also see previews for Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
XBOX has already confirmed three games, DOOM: The Dark Ages, South of Midnight, and Expedition 33, which will feature “in-depth” showcases during this event. There’s even a fourth game hinted at, with whispers circulating in the latest Insider Gaming Newsletter (make sure to sign up if you want in on those secrets!).
The excitement doesn’t stop there! Xbox plans some surprise announcements during or shortly after this event. It’s shaping up to be quite an occasion for fans.
The description of DOOM: The Dark Ages paints a vivid picture: “You are the DOOM Slayer, the legendary demon-killing warrior and the super weapon in this never-before-seen dark and sinister medieval war against Hell.” Sounds like players are in for something special!
