Doom The Dark Ages is officially set to release on May 15, 2025, on multiple platforms like Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 5, and the Xbox Series X/S. The title is the latest installment in the legendary Doom franchise, with the previous game released almost five years ago.
Judging by the system requirements of The Dark Ages, the game is slightly demanding. The RTX 3080 is the dev-suggested GPU for recommended gameplay, which is High graphics at 1440p resolution. This shouldn't be a problem for those who own the new RTX 5070 or the RTX 5070 Ti.
The Dark Ages should easily run at higher resolutions, even without any tweaking. However, we always recommend you make a few modifications in the settings to get the best performance and highest visual quality.

We've enabled a mix of High and Ultra Nightmare graphics settings at the 1440p resolution. This helps with higher quality visuals and immersive graphics.
