Doom: The Dark Ages' Spoilers Leak Early from Retailer Break

Exciting news for Doom fans as spoilers for Doom: The Dark Ages have been leaking following early retail releases. With the game set to launch on May 15, 2025, some players are already sharing screenshots and details about the plot, combat dynamics, and more on platforms like Reddit. Interestingly, it appears that PS5 users will need to download the entire game, approximately 80 GB, from the internet, despite having a physical disc. This has led to some frustration within the community regarding the efficiency of the disc's utility. In early reviews, Doom: The Dark Ages has garnered positive feedback, with players enjoying its straightforward gameplay and engaging experience.

PS5 players should be prepared for a mandatory download of over 80 GB, as the physical disc only contains data to initiate the download. This means they cannot play the game directly off the disc and must ensure they have sufficient internet access.

Doom: The Dark Ages is the latest installment in the long-standing Doom franchise, known for its visceral combat and fast-paced gameplay. The series has evolved significantly since its inception in 1993, with each title pushing technological boundaries and offering increasingly immersive experiences. The game's developer, id Software, aims to continue this legacy while introducing fresh elements that engage both new players and series veterans alike.
