After several rumors surrounding the upcoming prequel, DOOM: The Dark Ages was revealed at the Xbox Games Showcase, showing the Doom Slayer in a medieval-type setting equipped with an array of weapons that introduce more modern advancements to this era. Throughout this reveal trailer, Doom Slayer could be seen with a shotgun, futuristic armor – now with a fur cape – and more to aid him in fighting off hordes of enemies, merging them with weapons of the time, such as a mace, and a shield lined with a chainsaw rim to deliver the kind of brutal combat that players have come to expect from the series over the past three decades.
