One surprising thing about Doom: The Dark Ages is the relatively small number of challenges needed to unlock all the achievements and trophies. This might be because, unlike previous Doom games, it does not include a multiplayer mode. As a result, the number of achievements is lower compared to Doom Eternal and other games in the series.
Importantly, none of the trophies are missable, and no achievements are tied to specific difficulty levels, meaning you can enjoy the game at your own pace without worrying about missing out on any rewards.
