The goal of the shooter's development is to make it as widely accessible as possible. Compared to earlier id Software projects, DOOM: The Dark Ages will offer a great deal more customization. The studio's aim is to cater to a broader audience, as highlighted by executive producer Marty Stratton.

Players will have the ability to tweak various game elements to suit their preferences. This includes adjusting the enemies' difficulty and damage, changing the speed of projectiles, modifying the amount of damage they take, and altering other aspects such as the game's tempo, aggression level, and parry time. This level of customization ensures a personalized gaming experience for everyone.

Stratton also emphasized that the narrative of DOOM: The Dark Ages and DOOM: Eternal will be accessible to new players. You won't need to have played DOOM: The Dark Ages to understand the storylines in either game.
