Doom: The Dark Ages - DF Deep Dive Review - The id Tech 8 Engine Is Stunning

Doom: The Dark Ages sees id Software evolve its in-house technology, built specifically with current generation hardware in mind. In this special video, John goes in-depth on the new engine, delivering behind-the-scenes engine editor visualisations to illustrate the enhancements, going into depth on each key innovation - from RTGI to RT reflections, to physics enhancements, mass enemy hordes, animation and more.

All gameplay footage captured on a Razer Blade 16 with AMD Strix Point CPU and Nvidia RTX 5090, with the video edited on the same machine.
