The goal of the shooter's development is to make it as widely available as possible. Compared to earlier id Software projects, DOOM: The Dark Ages will offer a great deal more customization. The studio wanted to make the game accessible to as many people as possible, said executive producer Marty Stratton. 

In addition to altering the enemies' difficulty and damage, players will also be able to change the projectiles' speed, the amount of damage they take, and other elements like the game's tempo, aggression level, and parry time. 

Stratton also promised that the plots of DOOM: The Dark Ages and DOOM: Eternal can be understood without having played DOOM: The Dark Ages.
