## Intelligence Brief
Bethesda and id Software are releasing a Slaughter Mode for DOOM: The Dark Ages on November 16, 2026, according to multiple outlets reporting on the same day. Insider Gaming, Shane the Gamer, Push Square, FullCleared, Gematsu, and the official Slayers Club all confirmed the launch date. Shane the Gamer specified that the mode will be accessible only to players who own the Revelations DLC. The Slaughter Mode is described as an endless, wave-based horde mode that brings replayable runs to the single-player campaign. Push Square called the combination of DOOM: The Dark Ages and horde mode "a match made in heaven." The base game, released earlier in 2026, is a prequel to DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal, featuring the Doom Slayer in a medieval dark-fantasy setting with new weapons such as the Shield Saw and vehicles including a mech dragon and an Atlan mech. The Revelations DLC itself was announced alongside the mode, though the sources provided do not detail its full content beyond gating access to Slaughter Mode. No price for the DLC or the mode was mentioned in the coverage.
