Game news He uses the equipment of the next slayer from Doom: The Dark Ages in the 1993 game! The result is incredible…
When the next Doom game was revealed, a prequel which will be released in 2025, fans quickly fell in love with the atmosphere and new gameplay ideas. Half-medieval, half-futuristic, The Dark Ages promises, as always, a hell of a release and the arsenal that goes with it. Among the lot, the chainsaw shield clearly caught their eye, so much so that a modder has already added it to the original game!
The Slayer of Doom returns to wreak carnage and this weapon already promises to be really enjoyable
This year again, Microsoft pulled out all the stops for its Summer Game Fest conference. Casually, its line-up was really strong and the players, overall, really appreciated the many revelationsnotably the famous “one more thing” from Microsoft formalizing the return of the license Gears of War. Indiana Jones, Stalker 2, Fable, Age of Mythology, State of Decay 3, Chiaroscuro: Expedition 33… There is no doubt that this presentation was one of the conferences not to be missed during the Summer Game Fest.
We haven’t mentioned it but there is another title that caused a lot of noise during this conference, and we’re not saying that because its soundtrack was, as usual, very brutal and hyper-rhythmic. . You guessed it, we are obviously talking about the next one DOOMsubtitle The Dark Ageswhich mixes medieval atmosphere and firearm as devastating as ever. In fact, players instantly fell in love with one of the new gear shown in the trailer, and they didn’t want to wait until 2025 to try it out (including on PS5!).

In less than 24 hours, this player adds the next flagship weapon from Doom The Dark Ages to the original game!
The Slayer can always count on his large shotgun, held firmly in his right hand, but it’s not just this arm that allows him to annihilate waves of monsters. In the opposite hand, there is also a shield, a nod to the medieval atmosphere of the game, which can do very heavy damage. Equipped with a circular saw mechanism, the Slayer can throw this shield and bring it back to him using a chain. Enough to cause carnage at longer distances, in addition to absorbing blows! Although only visible for a few seconds, this weapon already has a dear place in the hearts of fans of the license.
One of the proofs of this love for this shield is the creation of a mod for the video game Doom released in 1993 by one of the community modders. To achieve this, the player reworked the chainsaw that was initially used in the original game and it has many more features than the basic weapon. As in The Dark Agesthe chainsaw shield can protect from damage and even be thrown towards enemies. The result is impressive, but it’s not quite there yet. : no problem, Craneo has planned to make some modifications, in particular so that the rendering is much less cheated.
