Bethesda revealed DOOM: The Dark Ages today during the Xbox Games Showcase with a fiery trailer full of gory, frenetic action. The game will come to Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PS5 sometime in 2025 and will launch day-and-date on Xbox and PC Game Pass.

You can watch the action-packed reveal trailer below:

Here are some more details from the official Xbox Wire:

Stand as the unrelenting champion against evil in DOOM: The Dark Ages, a single-player action FPS epic like nothing id Software has made before. Prepare for battle in 2025 when DOOM: The Dark Ages arrives on Game Pass, Xbox Series X|S, PC and PlayStation 5.

Wage war as one man matched against Hell’s legions in a dark fantasy setting expanding the DOOM universe. Witness the origin of the Slayer’s rage and his rise from a kingdom’s last hope to Hell’s greatest fear in this pulse-pounding, cinematic prequel to DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal.

Go medieval on battalions of demons, made up of all-new threats as well as familiar foes reforged from DOOM’s classic bestiary. Bring their malicious forces to heel with heavy duty shooter combat in a heroic story of epic proportion, powered by the latest idTech engine.

Blast, bludgeon, bisect and break through the enemy ranks using the Slayer’s superhuman strength, lethal arsenal and unmet tenacity. Supplement your trusty Super Shotgun with The Dark Ages’ new weaponry, including the face-shattering Flail and revved-up, throwable Shield Saw.

Inspired by the original DOOM (19 93), players overcome the odds in The Dark Ages in firmly grounded, heavy-hitting clashes featuring destructible demons, vicious melee strikes and more. With the right combination of ranged bombardment & melee aggression, anyone stepping into the Slayer’s boots will make Hell quiver in theirs.

DOOM: The Dark Ages’ cosmic-scale conflict calls for the heaviest ordnance possible, and the Slayer heeds. Enter the cockpit of your Atlan – a daunting skyscraper-sized mech capable of toppling Hell’s behemoths with titanic metal fists – and reclaim the skies aboard the Slayer’s Mecha Dragon, strapped to the jaws with jet engines and overwhelming firepower.

DOOM: The Dark Ages launches in 2025 for Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC.
