You can fully enjoy the Doom games without paying attention to the story, but all the games are connected with a deep and hardcore lore. Whether you want to play the Doom games in release order or chronologically, we will show you the way.
Table of Contents As one of the first and best FPS games of all time, you may not think there’s more to understand about the Doom games than the fact that there are demons and you need to kill them. And sure, you can have a blast with the games just enjoying the thrills of ripping through monsters to a rocking soundtrack, but there’s actually a very rich lore and timeline beneath the surface if you’re willing to look for it.
All Doom games in release order Doom began in 1993 and has seen numerous sequels, spinoffs, and rereleases. As impressive as the original games were for the time, and for how well they hold up, it is clear that they are the hardest ones to go back to. We highly suggest playing the games in release order to anyone who plans on tackling the entire series so you can enjoy and appreciate where the games began before diving into the more modern titles that iterate on that formula.
Recommended Videos All Doom games in chronological order Doom began in 1993, yet there are technically only 7 mainline games in the chronology. While it might seem like there would be little connection, if any, between the classic games and the rebooted series, let alone the odd 64 game and Doom 3, each one does have a place in the same timeline. Well, except for Doom 3, but we’ll explain that one at the end.
Related If you want to follow the Doom Slayer’s rampage against the demonic horde from start to finish as he sees it, here’s how to play the entire franchise in chronological order: The odd game in this chronology is Doom 3. There is some debate about where this game falls in the timeline, as some see this entry as a prequel to the first game, others place it after Doom 64, while others argue it is in its own alternate timeline by itself. This entry does not star the same Doom Slayer as the other games and is tonally very different from all the other games, so you are free to ignore this entry completely if you just wanted to focus on Doom Slayer saga.
