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 emphasized the studio's commitment to broad accessibility, surpassing the customization options available in previous id Software titles.

Players will enjoy extensive control over gameplay, adjusting enemy difficulty and damage, projectile speed, player damage, and even broader elements such as game tempo, aggression, and parry timing.

Stratton confirmed that DOOM: The Dark Ages and DOOM: Eternal's narratives are independently understandable, eliminating the need to play one to comprehend the other.
