The Doom series, launched in the 1990s, gained widespread popularity and became a significant part of video game history, particularly in the first-person shooter genre. Over the decades, the series has expanded with new games, reboots, and expansions. The latest major release, "Doom: Eternal," came out in 2020 and served as a meaningful continuation of "Doom" 2016. The new project is still being developed under the companies that are now part of Xbox.

The presentation trailer showed the main character, Doom Slayer, using various weapons and shields to battle demons, and even featured a moment where he rides a dragon. "The Dark Ages" is expected to delve into the backstory of the protagonist before his adventures on Mars, adding depth to the overall series narrative.

Information about the game surfaced a month before the official announcement due to a leak from Insider Gaming, which indicated that the development had been ongoing for about four years, and the project might have had the internal name "Year Zero."

The release of "Doom: The Dark Ages" is receiving special attention from Xbox, especially following significant investments in acquiring several studios and publishers, such as Activision and Bethesda. According to reports, Microsoft management emphasizes the need to increase profitability and expand the availability of games on more platforms, which has already led to porting games like "Sea of Thieves," "Pentiment," and "Grounded" to PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. According to recent reports, other popular games, possibly even "Halo," might appear on these and other platforms in the future.
