DOOM: The Dark Ages will allow players to make demons less aggressive in the settings

id Software aims to make DOOM: The Dark Ages the most accessible entry in the franchise yet. Executive producer Marty Stratton emphasizes a commitment to broad player reach, exceeding the customization options available in previous id Software titles.

Players will enjoy extensive control over the game's difficulty, adjusting enemy damage, projectile speed, and even the overall pace, aggression, and parry timing. This allows for finely tuned experiences catering to various skill levels and play styles.

Importantly, Stratton confirms that DOOM: The Dark Ages' narrative is self-contained. Players unfamiliar with the game's predecessor, DOOM: Eternal, can fully appreciate the story without prior knowledge.
