What are all the Doom The Dark Ages skins? Putting the ‘slay’ in ‘Slayer’ is part and parcel of the Doom experience, and there’s a respectable assortment of fancy chromas you can gussy the Praetor Suit up in, ready to coat with demon guts.
Unlike the Doom The Dark Ages wolf statue locations which are tough to track down, collecting all of the Doom The Dark Ages skins is easy, but certain skins are locked behind participation in real-world events. Most of the FPS games’ cosmetics are free (yay!), but some come as a purchase sweetener (less yay). Read on to learn what the skins are and how to get them.
Doom The Dark Ages skins
You can unlock four categories of Doom The Dark Ages skins: weapon, Slayer, Atlan, and dragon. Some come as rewards for clearing in-game challenges, while others require participation in external events like the Doom The Dark Ages Twitch drops.
Weapon skins can be switched in-game at any time by heading to the Arsenal tab and pressing the ‘Weapon Skins’ button. Take a look at our Doom The Dark Ages weapons guide to find out where you can unlock each gun. You can also mess with your cosmetic lineup from the shooter’s main menu by clicking ‘Extras’ and accessing the various skin menus for each category from there.
