DOOM: The Dark Ages Gameplay Unveiled by NVIDIA

Nvidia Unveils New Gameplay Footage for Doom: The Dark Ages

Nvidia's recent hardware and software showcase featured a brief, but exciting, glimpse of Doom: The Dark Ages. The 12-second teaser showcases the game's diverse environments and the iconic Doom Slayer, equipped with a new shield. This highly anticipated 2025 release for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC will leverage DLSS 4 technology for enhanced visuals.

Building on the success of the 2016 Doom reboot, Doom: The Dark Ages promises to deliver the series' signature brutal combat, while significantly upgrading the visual fidelity of its varied landscapes. The teaser showcases a stark contrast between opulent interiors and desolate, cratered exteriors.

Nvidia's showcase highlighted the game's development using the latest idTech engine and its utilization of ray reconstruction on the new RTX 50 series. This suggests a visually stunning experience.

The footage, part of Nvidia's ray tracing demonstration, doesn't reveal any combat, but the level variety alone is impressive. While a precise release date remains unannounced, more details on the storyline, enemies, and combat mechanics are expected throughout 2025.

The showcase also included previews of CD Projekt Red's next Witcher title and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, further emphasizing the advancements in visual fidelity enabled by Nvidia's new GeForce RTX 50 series. This technology will undoubtedly push the boundaries of visual quality and performance for future game releases.
