Recently, foreign players discovered that the official pricing of "Doom: Dark Age" on Steam is far from Steam's "suggested price", and almost no one follows the "suggested price" of V.

The official pricing of Doom: Dark Ages is significantly higher than Steam's recommended price in several regions.For example:

US: Official pricing is $69.99, which is consistent with the recommended price, but this is just a few exceptions.

China: The official price is ¥349 (about $49.99), while the recommended price is ¥238 (about $33.99), about 47% higher.

Brazil: The official price is R$349.90 (approximately $60.85), and the recommended price is R$189.99 (approximately $33.03), about 85% higher.

Mexico: The official price is Mex$1399.00 (approximately $71.33), and the recommended price is Mex$719.99 (approximately $36.71), which is 94% higher.

There are players in the comments section saying they are more willing to wait for discounts or experience the game at a lower cost through Xbox Game Pass.

@Doomguero: "Everyone is complaining about the price, but the Game Pass is only $10 and can pass the level in a few days, so why not choose this?"

@Kev_J_: "I love Doom 4 (2016), but Doom: Eternal makes me bored, and I'll play Game Pass this time."

On Reddit, some users analyzed that Microsoft has been trying to "force" players to turn to Xbox Game Pass in recent years by unifying high pricing strategies.Game Pass offers a large number of games including Doom: Dark Ages for $10 a month, and it's really attractive for players who are reluctant to pay high stand-alone game fees.

"This is completely Microsoft's strategy, just like the pricing of the "Hainan Jones" game, they don't consider regional pricing at all, they just want to force you to use Game Pass," u/Ph5r5on said on Reddit.

In recent years, the price of 3A games has generally risen, from $60 to $70 or even higher, becoming an industry trend.However, players' acceptance of this price increase varies by region and game type.

For a game like Doom: Dark Ages, which mainly plays a stand-alone experience, many players believe that its content value is difficult to match the high pricing, especially compared to large open-world games like GTA6.

On X, @Bunker said: "I would rather wait for a year or two to discount. There is no reason to buy it now unless you are an anchor."

This is why you don’t buy B Club games, only play pirated versions
