Overview

• DOOM: The Dark Ages reached three million players within its first week, setting a franchise record for player adoption speed.
• Analytics estimate over two million players accessed the game on Xbox, primarily through the Game Pass subscription service.
• PlayStation 5 engagement is significantly lower, with approximately 500,000 players and only 200,000 full-price sales reported.
• PC performance lags further behind, with just 400,000 estimated units sold on Steam and modest overall engagement.
• The game's reliance on Game Pass raises questions about the financial sustainability of subscription-based launches for high-budget titles.
