It will never not seem weird to me that turgid guffola like "Doom: The Dark Ages is a premium singleplayer campaign featuring three core pillars of engagement" have moved from quarterly investor statements to consumer-oriented marketing. Luckily for all of us today, that stultifying corpo-speak isn't the real reason we're here: We're here to check out a new trailer for Doom: The Dark Ages, revealing—for the very first time!—the Cosmic Realm, which has teamed up with Hell for reasons unknown but that are surely not good.
I have to give credit to game director Hugo Martin for the remarkable flexibility he shows here. After reminding us about the game's "pillars of engagement," he effortlessly shifts to the horrific glories that await in this new realm: "You will bear witness to the cyclopean architecture of this Lovecraftian dimension as you explore its darkest secrets and battle its most insane enemies!"
