DOOM Arena Board Game's two versions: one based on DOOM (1993) and one based on DOOM: The Dark Ages with their own DOOM Slayer miniature

Collect the DOOM Universe Across Two Different Eras 

DOOM | Arena Board Game comes in two distinct editions: The DOOM (1993) | Arena Board Game emulates the franchise’s origins down to the pixelated aesthetic and iconic roster of Imps, Lost Souls, the ferocious Cyberdemon and more to face the Doom Guy, while the DOOM: The Dark Ages | Arena Board Game captures the medieval fantasy look of the series' latest entry, bringing the unstoppable Doom Slayer against Imp Stalkers, Hell Knights, the imposing Mancubus and the rest of Hell’s armies.

Both versions of the game share the same fun and intense rules while still capturing each era of DOOM with unique weapons, abilities and of course, miniatures. In addition to plastic standees, both versions offer high-quality PVC figures that pop on the tabletop and make a hell of an exciting painting project for hobbyists. 

Challenge Friends in Bloody Arena Battles 

So how do you win? It’s so simple, it must be DOOM: spill Blood! In DOOM | Arena Board Game, two to four players face off in asymmetrical arena duels. One player takes the role of the Doom Slayer as the rest control the hordes of Hell as they navigate the hex-based map and use their abilities to tear each other apart.

Just like its video game counterpart, DOOM | Arena Board Game rewards smart maneuvers, anticipating opponents, upgrading your arsenal for optimum carnage and failing those, going all in on big friendly damage to spill the most Blood and win the Round – win best of three Rounds and you’re victorious!
