Doom: The Dark Agesis shaping up to be one of the most important games heading into 2025. Despite not knowing much about it, more information continues to trickle in; this time, it’s related to the “Glory Kills.”
Doom: The Dark Ages Brings New “Glory Kills”
Doom: The Dark Agesis looking highly promising for players on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The game from id Software has already impressed ahead of its 2025 release, but there’s still much to learn about the new demon-slaying adventure.
Metal, hell, blood, and brutal executions with unique weapons are returning after Doom and Doom Eternal, but the veteran shooter team is preparing a few new features and quite a few changes.
A new report has emerged with alleged details following Quakecon that would reveal some of those improvements and mechanics that Doom: The Dark Ages will feature.
Doom: The Dark Ages Would Introduce a Significant Novelty
The one that has stood out the most among fans of the series is that id Software might introduce a system allowing the player to choose which “Glory Kill” to perform when it comes to brutally executing an enemy.
The previous two modern-era Doom games delivered some truly impactful executions, but their gore-filled animations were performed at random, without the player being able to choose which one to do.
Doom: The Dark Ages would move away from these scripted animations to offer more choice in deciding what to do and how to do it. Naturally, this has excited fans of the saga’s “glory kills.”
As for other details mentioned, it’s noted that the jump will be much more powerful and higher, even though the game will be less vertical. The world will present new interactions and more intricate scenarios, and there will be up to three melee weapons.
It’s important to note that this is just a report, and it remains to be seen what id Software, Bethesda, and Zenimax officially reveal in upcoming teasers.
