Nvidia's recent hardware and software showcase unveiled a new 12-second teaser for the highly anticipated Doom: The Dark Ages. This glimpse showcases the game's diverse environments and the iconic Doom Slayer, equipped with a new shield. The game, confirmed for release on Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC in 2025, will leverage DLSS 4 technology for enhanced visuals.
Building upon the success of the 2016 Doom reboot, Doom: The Dark Ages promises to deliver a visceral and visually stunning experience. The teaser highlights the game's varied level design, ranging from opulent corridors to barren landscapes. While combat isn't explicitly shown, the footage strongly suggests a continuation of the franchise's signature intense action.
Nvidia's announcement emphasizes the game's development using the latest idTech engine and its utilization of ray reconstruction on the new RTX 50 series. This points towards a significant leap in visual fidelity. The teaser follows the game's initial reveal at last year's Xbox Games Showcase.
The showcase also featured other titles, including CD Projekt Red's Witcher sequel and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, highlighting the advancements in visual technology enabled by Nvidia's new GeForce RTX 50 series.
While a precise release date remains unannounced, Doom: The Dark Ages is slated to launch sometime in 2025 across Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. Further details regarding the storyline, enemy roster, and combat mechanics are expected as the release date approaches.
