In a new development, ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) has partnered with Bethesda and id Software on the upcoming game titled DOOM: The Dark Ages. The game has been developed by id Software and published by Bethesda. This collaboration is a part of the ongoing celebrations for the 30-year anniversary of ASUS graphics cards.
The collaboration is headlined by a limited-edition ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5080 graphics card based on the DOOM Slayer character. It will be sold exclusively on the Bethesda Gear Store, bundled with an exclusive T-shirt, mouse mat, yellow key card, ROG-exclusive DOOM Slayer Legionary in-game skin, and optionally, the Premium Edition of the game.
Kent Chien, Corporate Vice President, ASUS, says, “We’re thrilled to continue our 30th anniversary celebrations by collaborating with the developers of DOOM, who have also played a pioneering role in the PC gaming industry for over three decades. We partnered closely with id Software and Bethesda to develop a graphics card that we hope fans of the DOOM franchise will cherish and take pride in showcasing within their systems and collections.”
The upcoming game, DOOM: The Dark Ages, is the prequel to the critically acclaimed DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal that tells an epic cinematic story worthy of the DOOM Slayer’s legend. When powered by GeForce RTX 50 Series, AI-powered NVIDIA DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation boosts FPS and constructs high-quality images, further enhancing the visuals for the definitive DOOM: The Dark Ages PC experience.
ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5080 DOOM Edition
With an eye-catching green and gold colorway, DOOM Slayer artwork on the backplate, and striking green fans modeled after the Shield Saw, the ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5080 DOOM Edition pays tribute to the latest installment of the franchise. For additional flair, the rear mounting bracket and heatsink are also draped in gold to accent the theme. Subtle iconography and sentinel figures around the frame of the card further tie it to the lore surrounding the game, enhancing appeal for gamers and collectors seeking a showpiece for their system or display case.
The aesthetics are underpinned with potent hardware worthy of the DOOM Slayer’s arsenal. Robust power delivery arms the GPU and 16GB of GDDR7 for boundary-pushing performance. For effortless cooling in the heat of battle, free of all bottlenecks, the card efficiently tames temperatures through an optimized heat spreader, patented vapor chamber design, phase-change thermal pad, vast fin array, and four Axial-tech fans.
This makes the ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5080 DOOM Edition ideal for gamers sporting the latest 4K high-refresh-rate monitors, and seeking to experience the game as the developer intended. In this milestone year for ASUS, the ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5080 DOOM Edition honors 30 years of PC gaming, reminding enthusiasts from all walks of the industry where their journey started and why they’re still gaming today.
