"Before he became a hero," the video begins, "he was the super weapon of gods and kings." And what a super weapon he was. But, don't let me tell you. You can check out Doom: The Dark Ages' reveal trailer for yourself below.

Doom: The Dark Ages will serve as a prequel to 2016's Doom and Doom Eternal. It is described as a single-player action FPS that "tells the epic cinematic origin story of the Doom Slayer's rage", and of course, it is being developed by id Software.

The new Dooms already went heavy into the back story, and those games were pretty great. The old slayer lore stuff was just an excuse to have more set pieces and weapons that were metal AF. And now they’re just going to do more of that.

I remember the elevator ride where doomguy smashes the elevator screen that’s trying to tell the story than carnage.

Same with enteral.

Look up Doom lore if you really want to see how crazy they've gotten with the new games.
