As enamored as I was in my recent review of Indiana Jones and The Great Circle, there was one game mentioned in the intro that I am even considerably more excited for - Doom: The Dark Ages. Releasing in less than a month the latest trailer has dialed my anticipation up to 11. What’s immediately evident in this installment is the increased use of melee abilities with the incorporation of the shield throw and some mace bashes and that some of the enemy encounters are dialing it up to 11 along with my anticipation with giants to slay and mounts to well… mount.
This looks to be another epic chapter in an already iconic series that has gone from strength to strength in its last two releases, Doom and Doom Eternal. The game seamless blends wall to wall action, over the top narratives, and incredible metal music design into what is, in my opinion, one of the most just plain old fun gaming experiences of this current age. Can’t wait to jump into the Dark Ages on May 15th.
