To rip and tear your way through demons in medieval battlegrounds and uncover the origin story of the Slayer’s rage, you’ll need to download and install DOOM The Dark Ages on your gaming device (PC, Xbox Series X/S, PS5, or PS5 Pro) and, for that to happen, you must have enough free disk space available.
That’s why knowing precisely how big DOOM The Dark Ages’ file size is can be important for some games, especially for those who play some kind of virtual Tetris with their game installation sizes. Let’s dive in headfirst like any good DOOM Slayer would and discuss how much SSD space is required to install DOOM The Dark Ages once the game launches on 15 May 2025.
DOOM The Dark Ages File Size
Let’s be clear: At the time of writing, the precise DOOM The Dark Ages file size details are not available. We do, however, have a good idea of how much space you’ll need since the game’s PC system requirements note “100 GB available space” as a requirement.
Therefore, we expect DOOM The Dark Ages to weigh in between 80 and 100 GB since the available free space requirement is generally higher and includes files needed for the installation process.
Please note: We’ll update this article as soon as the exact file size for DOOM The Dark Ages becomes available for each platform.
Yes, DOOM THe Dark Ages is as thick as a Mancubus, weighing in at around 100 GB. Don’t expect this one to get much thinner…
Do I Need An SSD For DOOM The Dark Ages?
We will pull off the bandaid right now for anyone still using a standard hard drive for their gaming PC. You will need an SSD to play the game, as it is listed on its minimum PC specs.
Specifically, under additional notes via the game’s Steam page (minimum requirements), the developer has revealed: “1080p / 60 FPS / Low Quality Settings, NVME SSD storage required.“
While you contemplate if you need an upgrade of any sort, especially with the NVME SSD storage as part of the game’s hefty minimum requirements, check out an exciting video from Xbox Developer direct below, showcasing the Slayer’s rage in action.
