ⓘ Steam
Doom: The Dark Ages is the newest entry in the acclaimed Doom franchise.
Doom: The Dark Ages is at its all-time low on Steam - 67% off at just $23.09. id Software's medieval prequel to Doom 2016 boasts an 85% positive rating. The Premium Edition is also at a historic low.

If you've been waiting for the right moment to rip and tear through id Software's medieval hellscape, that moment is now. Doom: The Dark Ages has just dropped back to its all-time low price on Steam - 67% off, bringing it down to just $23.09. According to SteamDB's price history, this is the most the game has ever been discounted on the platform - the last time this happened was back in March 2026, during the Spring sale.

The Dark Ages is the third installment in the modern Doom trilogy. It is the origin story of the Doom Slayer - the legendary demon-killing machine whose rage apparently predates the events of both Doom 2016 and Eternal. The game is set in a dark fantasy medieval world at war with Hell. The sci-fi DNA of the franchise mixes very well with the grittier, more cinematic tone of this new game. It's built on id Software's latest idTech engine and is strictly a single-player experience.

Weapons-wise, classic favorites like the Super Shotgun return as well, joined by a whole slate of new additions. There are also mechs and dragons involved, if that's what you're into.

The game currently sits at a "Very Positive" rating on Steam, with 85% of over 17,000 English reviews recommending it. In just the last 30 days, that figure climbed even higher to 89% positive. Critics have been equally warm: IGN called it a game that proves id Software "don't miss," and GamingBolt described it as "lightning in a bottle."

What's the deal, exactly?

Standard Edition: $69.99 $23.09 (67% off) - all-time low.

Premium Edition: Also at a new historical low, which includes the Campaign DLC, a Digital Artbook, Soundtrack, and the Divinity Skin Pack with matching cosmetics for the Doom Slayer, dragon, and Atlan mech.

It's also worth noting that if you're a Game Pass PC or Ultimate subscriber, Doom: The Dark Ages is included in the catalog - so check that before purchasing.
