When can you play Doom: The Dark Ages early on Xbox

After two critically acclaimed entries - Doom (2016) And Doom: Eternal (2020) Bethesda and id Software are back for their third title in the series, Doom: The Dark Ages.

Like both games before it, Doom: The Dark Ages is set to be a frantic, heavy metal, over-blown, no holds barred first person shooter intended to be played at 100 miles per hour. Also like both games before it, Doom: The Dark Ages will switch up the formula a little. While Doom was a furious run-and-gun which rewarded you for never backing down, Doom: Eternal added verticality and speed to the formula. As for Doom: The Dark Ages, it’s set to introduce the adage that defence is the best form of attack - in the form of a gigantic shield with chainsaw blades round the edge of it.
