The game follows a rich narrative and is a prequel to DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal (2020). It's more brutal than ever, with its gore-filled first-person shooter gameplay. While the game is primarily linear, it does have certain open-world areas.

Getting into the system requirements for the game, we see that it's a little on the demanding side. To help players understand better, Bethesda has explained the requirements quite elaborately. If you have a decent 8 GB VRAM GPU, you should be able to enjoy the game quite well, albeit with some tweaks in the settings.
