Doom: The Dark Ages
Doom: The Dark Ages has been confirmed to make an appearance in the show.

It was previously reported that the upcoming Doom title will utilize the iconic id Tech engine. id Software is also working on multiple titles besides Doom: The Dark Ages.

The Developer Direct will be streamed live on Twitch and YouTube, starting at 1 PM ET / 10 AM PT / 6 PM UK on January 23. Like last year’s event, it will focus on gameplay and game announcements without hosts.
