This Thursday, May 15th, is one of the dates we've been keeping a close eye on this year! And for good reason, it's today that one of the most anticipated games of 2025 is coming out, based on a hyper-cult franchise that needs no introduction. In addition, Xbox Game Pass subscribers have the first chance to play it on the day. In addition to the PS5, head over to your Xbox Series X|S console or PC now to dive into this intense and visceral adventure.
Une tuerie joins Xbox Game Pass
The month of May is not short of new releases that we've been keeping an eye on for a while. We can notably mention The Precint, the famous "reverse GTA", but also, in the coming weeks, a certain Onimusha 2 and Elden Ring Nightreign. But today, a hard-hitting title is arriving, namely Doom The Dark Ages. And, to top it all off, it's available on Xbox Game Pass for PC or Ultimate owners.
This direct prequel to the excellent 2016 Doom and Doom Eternal (also available on Xbox Game Pass) transports you to a universe that's still just as dark, but this time with medieval overtones. Indeed, The Dark Ages surprised everyone with its medieval setting, giving the franchise a new dimension for an adventure that rethinks the traditional mechanics of previous installments.
Doom The Dark Ages explores the origins of the Slayer in a medieval war against the terrible legions of Hell. For the occasion, a new arsenal is available to you. A shield saw, a studded flail, and even an electric gauntlet will be your best allies against the enemy. But longtime fans can rest assured, the iconic weapons of the franchise will also be there for an experience that is as visceral as ever. With all this, it could become a must-have for Xbox Game Pass.
However, expect a somewhat different gameplay dynamic compared to the latest installments in the saga. Doom The Dark Ages is still just as perilous but focuses less on speed. Regulars will have to get used to this change in approach, but expect it to bleed as heavily as before. The game is already waiting for you on PC, PS5, Xbox Series src="https://youtube.com/embed/s1i3YfGl5ag" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="1">
