Guides

Step into the brutal world of Doom: The Dark Ages with a fresh, blood-splattered look-completely free. The Butcher skin transforms your Doom Slayer into a steel-gray harbinger of carnage, dripping with the essence of battle. Claiming this exclusive cosmetic is simple: just log in to your Bethesda account, grab the free bundle, and unleash your new fearsome style before the offer ends on June 27, 2025.

Claiming the Butcher skin is a quick process – one that doesn’t even require slaying many demons. In this Doom: The Dark Ages guide, we run over all the steps on how to get the free Butcher skin.

How to get the Butcher skin in Doom: The Dark Ages

To get the free Butcher skin in Doom: The Dark Ages, you need to claim a complimentary in-game bundle from Bethesda. First, log into or create a Bethesda.net account and ensure it is linked to your game platform. Then, visit the Bethesda bundle page at freebundle.bethesda.net (or scan the QR code available in the game’s main menu) and click the “CLAIM NOW” button while logged in. Claiming the bundle opts you into Bethesda’s marketing emails, which you can disable afterward if you wish. After claiming, restart the game, go to the “Extras” menu, then “Slayer Skins,” and equip the Butcher skin. If the skin does not appear immediately, make sure your accounts are properly linked and try restarting the game again.

With the Butcher skin, you lose the military-green armor and change it to a pure steel-gray color with lots of blood over it. This skin can be yours after you claim the free in-game bundle from Bethesda. To do so.

  1. First, log in to your Bethesda account. (If you don’t have one, setting one up is pretty quick, and you can create an account at this page.)
  2. Then, visit Bethesda’s site to claim the bundle.
  3. From there, visit your Bethesda account, where you can find your “Transaction History.” If all went well and you claimed the bundle correctly, it will be listed in this section of your profile.

Now, you may be a seasoned player of Bethesda games and have already linked your platform accounts to your Bethesda account. If so, you just need to open the game and you will be notified that you won the Butcher skin. You can equip it by accessing the “Extras” menu and selecting the “Slayer Skins” option.

Want to know the secret way to unlock the Butcher skin for free in Doom

To unlock the free Butcher skin in Doom: The Dark Ages, simply claim the exclusive in-game bundle offered by Bethesda. You can do this by scanning the QR code found on the game’s main menu or by visiting freebundle.bethesda.net and logging into your Bethesda.net account. After claiming the bundle, the Butcher skin will be added to your account, and you can equip it from the Extras menu under Slayer Skins. This skin is available for free until June 27, 2025, and requires opting into Bethesda email communications, which you can later opt out of if you wish.

Is scanning the QR code the only way to unlock the Butcher skin for free

No, scanning the QR code is not the only way to unlock the Butcher skin for free in Doom: The Dark Ages. You can also claim the skin by directly visiting Bethesda’s official bundle claim page at freebundle.bethesda.net, logging into your Bethesda.net account, opting into Bethesda’s email marketing, and then selecting “Claim Now” to unlock the bundle. The QR code on the main menu simply provides a convenient shortcut to this webpage, especially for console players, but both methods lead to the same process of claiming the skin. After claiming, you may need to restart the game and equip the skin from the Extras menu under Slayer Skins.
