DOOM: The Dark Ages will allow players to make demons less aggressive in the settings

DOOM: The Dark Ages, launching May 15th, aims for maximum accessibility. Unlike previous id Software titles, it boasts extensive customization options, a key focus for executive producer Marty Stratton. This includes adjusting enemy difficulty, damage output, projectile speed, player damage, and even gameplay elements like tempo, aggression, and parry timing.

Stratton confirms the narrative of DOOM: The Dark Ages is standalone, understandable even without prior DOOM: Eternal experience.
