If you want to claim nine Steam freebies inspired by the legendary DOOM series with no subscription needed, then you’re in the right place.
This week, early access pre-orderers are taking advantage of playing the highly anticipated id Software prequel to DOOM (2016), DOOM: The Dark Ages, and if you’re one of those, I’m sure you’re having a blast with the game.
What’s extra convenient about DOOM: The Dark Ages, with it being a prequel, is that it’s a great entry point for new fans of the series to check out before moving onto DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal (2020).
Check out the DOOM: The Dark Ages trailer below!

In my review of DOOM: The Dark Ages, I said it is “an action-packed, cinematic, glorious delight, and with the bonus of it being a prequel, it could be an ideal entry point for those new to the series. Depending on how 2025 continues to play out, it wouldn't surprise me if DOOM: The Dark Ages is a topic of hot discussion as a Game of the Year contender.”
If you want an extra bit of DOOM goodness, without spending a penny, as brought to our attention by Wario64, you can claim nine free avatars/stickers to proudly display on your Steam profile.
All you have to do is watch at least 10 minutes of a stream for DOOM: The Dark Ages with id Software game director Hugo Martin, executive producer Marty Stratton and senior community lead Joshua Boyle.

However, just a heads up, a Twitter user replied to the tweet from Wario64, saying there’s an issue with the content drops, but it should be fixed soon.
“Thanks, Wario64, it worked. (Guys, don't forget to log in)” replied 0TaubenHaucher0 with a helpful reminder.
DOOM: The Dark Ages is being launched for general release on 15 May 2025 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
