The Dark Ages is slowing things down compared to the twitchy gameplay of Eternal, meaning one area of gameplay needs to shine.

Doom: The Dark Ages looks great so far, but the Shield Saw, one of its central mechanics, could be playing a risky game in some ways.

Pre-orders for Doom: The Dark Ages are still nowhere to be found at Walmart. But the big retailer is pretty good with making sure every big game of the year it represented, so we're betting it won't be long until the pre-order PS5 and Xbox Series X copies of the game make an appearance.
