Doom: The Dark Ages Review: A Medieval Mayhem Worth Playing?

Rappler Tech Editor Gelo Gonzales reviews Doom: The Dark Ages, a new action shooter released May 15, 2025. The game features a medieval setting and fast-paced combat. Gonzales highlights the innovative shield saw and parry mechanics, stating, "The parry timing window is extremely generous." He also notes that while the Titan sequences are simpler than the core gameplay, the metal soundtrack enhances the overall experience. He concludes by recommending the game for its accessibility and entertainment value, particularly for those who enjoy high-octane action and are PC Game Pass subscribers. The game's availability on Game Pass makes it a cost-effective option for players.
