The experience demands dedication, resilience and repetition, rewarding the most persistent with memorable moments of conquest.

Doom: The Dark Ages is an experience entirely worthy of the saga's legacy, while introducing elements that boldly renew and reconfigure it.

It follows the formula of the series, without taking any risks, limiting itself to delivering a game that is consistent with what fans already know.

Instead of a Metal Slug reboot, we have a complex and challenging alternative to turn-based strategic combat games. Beneath a hard surface that takes time to excavate lies a very dynamic and attractive military combat experience.
