*''[[No End in Sight]]'' appears to be set in an alternate reality that splits off from the timeline after either ''Thy Flesh Consumed'' or ''DOOM II'':
*Media from other franchises that exist in the timeline (Commander Keen, Wolfenstein, non-DOOM appearances Quake games, etc.)

:*The official story contradicts the ending of ''DOOM II'', as it infers that the invasion of Earth did not cease after the defeat of the Icon of Sin.

:*The end slide implies that the ''DOOM'' series (or at the very least ''DOOM (1993)'') exists within this reality as a video game series.

*''[[Deathless]]'' appears to have no story.

*''[[REKKR]]'' is set in a universe unrelated to ''DOOM''.

Revision as of 10:56, 14 April 2023

This sandbox is being used to list DOOM media, sorted by in-universe chronological order. Because of the ambiguity of when exactly most material in the franchise is set, and its many anachronisms, this list is separated into sections by each respective era, and makes use of a heavy amount of guesstimating.

This lists exclude (unless stated why otherwise):

Whilst it's unconfirmed whether or not official add-ons are canon to the DOOM timeline, ones that do not contradict anything official will be included for the sake of completeness:

  • No End in Sight appears to be set in an alternate reality that splits off from the timeline after either Thy Flesh Consumed or DOOM II:
  • The official story contradicts the ending of DOOM II, as it infers that the invasion of Earth did not cease after the defeat of the Icon of Sin.
  • The end slide implies that the DOOM series (or at the very least DOOM (1993)) exists within this reality as a video game series.
  • The end slide also suggests that the human race, apart from Doomguy, is now extinct, which contradicts official games set after DOOM II.
  • Deathless appears to have no story.
  • REKKR is set in a universe unrelated to DOOM.
