• Throwable Projectiles/Bombs (Expected): Explosive/Utility
  Likely to include grenade-like projectiles or other throwable devices, possibly with a medieval twist. (Speculative)

• Lethal Firearms (Pistols, SMGs, Assault Rifles, Shotguns, LMGs, Grenade Launchers): Conventional Ballistic & Explosive
  A wide variety of standard firearms. Each operative class or specific recruit might have a preference or unique access to certain types (e.g., Spies get silenced pistols, Hitmen get Desert Eagles). Some weapons are DedSec issue, others are Albion or Clan Kelley specific.
• Non-Lethal Weapons (Shock Weapons): Stun/Disruptive
  Weapons designed to incapacitate rather than kill, such as shock pistols, shock shotguns, and shock SMGs. Useful for players wanting a less lethal playthrough or for recruiting operatives who might be injured by lethal force.

  Special DedSec-themed versions of weapons, often with non-lethal variants or unique properties, unlocked through tech upgrades or as operative perks.

• Gadgets (Spider-Bot, AR Cloak, Electro-Fist, Missile Drone, etc.): Tactical/Hacking/Utility
  A wide array of deployable gadgets unlocked via Tech Points. These include various types of Spider-Bots (Infiltrator, Combat), an augmented reality cloak for temporary invisibility, shock traps, electro-fist for powerful melee, and more. Operatives can equip two gadgets.
• Operative-Specific Weapons/Abilities (e.g., Spy Watch, Nail Gun, Berserker's Shockwave): Unique Character Perk
  Many operative archetypes come with unique inherent weapons or special abilities that cannot be unequipped or changed (e.g., Spy's silenced pistol & car, Construction Worker's nail gun, Anarchist's smoke grenade).

• Doom Slayer's Armor (Dark Ages Variant): The Doom Slayer will undoubtedly wear a powerful suit of armor, likely a precursor or a thematically different version of the Praetor Suit. It will offer significant protection and serve as the basis for upgrades enhancing health, armor capacity, and other combat attributes. Specific stats and upgrade paths TBD.

• Operative Traits (e.g., 'Tough Drunk', 'Physically Fit'): Individual operatives may possess traits that grant them inherent damage resistance or increased health (e.g., 'Tough Drunk' takes less damage while intoxicated, 'Physically Fit' might have more health). This is not traditional armor but contributes to survivability.
• Gadgets (e.g., Riot Shield Drone - Hypothetical/Similar to existing tech): While no direct wearable armor is equipped, certain gadgets or operative abilities might provide temporary defensive bonuses or shields (e.g., a construction worker's cargo drone could be used as cover, or a specialized drone might project a temporary shield).
• Clothing (Cosmetic): Clothing choices are primarily cosmetic and do not offer direct armor or damage reduction values. Operatives might appear more 'armored' based on their profession (e.g., an Albion soldier recruit), but this is visual.

• Doom Slayer's Armor Set: The primary 'clothing' will be the Slayer's suit of armor. Customization options are TBD but, based on Doom Eternal, could include different armor skins/colorways unlocked through progression or challenges. (Speculative)

• Tops, Bottoms, Outerwear, Headwear, Eyewear, Masks, Gloves, Footwear: Extensive clothing customization for each operative. Players can purchase a wide variety of items from numerous clothing shops scattered around London, reflecting diverse London street styles, subcultures, and professional attire. Items include jackets, hoodies, t-shirts, trousers, skirts, shoes, hats, glasses, etc. Masks are a key cosmetic, with many unique designs to find or buy.
• Full Outfits: Some pre-set outfits are available, often tied to specific operative archetypes (e.g., Albion uniform for an Albion recruit, construction gear for a worker) or purchasable as cosmetic sets.
• Weapon Skins & Vehicle Skins: Players can apply various skins and paint jobs to their DedSec weapons and owned vehicles for further personalization. Unlocked through progression, challenges, or store purchases.

Likely to retain core Doom mechanics: weapon mods, suit upgrades (Praetor Suit or its precursor), and possibly Runes. New mechanics tied to the Atlan shield (defensive, offensive, traversal) and potentially the Flail are expected. Progression may involve unlocking new abilities or enhancements for these new tools. Resource management for upgrades will likely return.

Features a detailed and faithful recreation of central London, divided into several iconic boroughs like City of Westminster, Camden, Islington & Hackney, Lambeth, Southwark, Tower Hamlets, and City of London. Each borough has its distinct architecture, landmarks (e.g., Buckingham Palace, Tower of London, Piccadilly Circus), and atmosphere. The map is dense with activities, collectibles, and opportunities for emergent gameplay.

  A: No, it is a prequel, set before the events of Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal, exploring an earlier period in the Doom Slayer's history.
• Q: What is the Atlan shield?
  A: The Atlan is a new piece of equipment for the Doom Slayer. It's a throwable shield that can also be used for blocking attacks and likely has other offensive and defensive capabilities, possibly aiding in traversal.

Powered by the latest id Tech engine, visuals will aim for cutting-edge fidelity, featuring detailed environments blending medieval architecture with demonic corruption, visceral gore, and spectacular particle effects. Ray tracing and other advanced rendering techniques are expected.

Powered by an updated version of the Disrupt engine, the game offers a detailed and vibrant recreation of London. It features impressive reflections (especially with ray tracing), realistic weather effects, dense crowds and traffic, and detailed character models. Ray-traced reflections are a key visual feature on supported hardware, significantly enhancing the look of London's glass and rain-slicked streets.

Expected to feature an intense, heavy metal soundtrack driving the action, possibly by a new composer or a collaboration maintaining the franchise's signature style. Immersive sound design for demonic roars, weapon impacts, and environmental ambience is a staple and anticipated.

Original score composed by Stephen Barton and additional music by various artists, blending electronic, grime, and orchestral elements to reflect near-future London's atmosphere. Features in-game radio stations with a diverse selection of licensed tracks across multiple genres. Sound design emphasizes a technologically advanced city with drone hums, AR sounds, and distinct weapon/hacking effects.

Features a futuristic, AR-overlay style HUD displaying a mini-map, objective markers, hackable objects, and operative-specific abilities. The phone interface is used for mission selection, team management, map, and accessing DedSec tech. The 'Deep Profiler' allows players to scan any NPC to learn their schedule, connections, and potential recruitment viability.

Offers a comprehensive suite of accessibility options, including extensive control remapping, aim assist customization, subtitle options (size, background, speaker names, captions for important sounds), colorblind modes, options to change hold QTEs to toggles, adjustable text size, HUD scaling, and audio/visual cues for various gameplay elements.
