DOOM Eternal had a very different combat dance in play, one that had the Slayer use a shoulder-mounted flamethrower to melt enemy armor into armor pick-ups, so DOOM: The Dark Ages feels both fresh and familiar - different enough that it doesn't feel like more of the same or an extension of what has come before.

The next action-packed FPS in the vaunted Doom franchise slows down the pace for a different flavor of gothic carnage.
