This guide explains how to complete the Chapter 5 Layover Challenge in Doom The Dark Ages, revealing the secret landing spots where you can dismount your dragon.
Starting from Chapter 4 Sentinel Barracks, Doom The Dark Ages includes several Mission Challenges in each chapter. While these are optional secondary tasks, completing them rewards players with currencies like Gold and Rubies, as well as unique weapon skins. While some challenges can be naturally completed as you progress, others require thorough exploration, making them easy to miss.
One such challenge is the Layover from Chapter 5, The Holy City of Aratum, which requires players to find two secret landing spots. If you are struggling to complete the Layover Challenge in Doom The Dark Ages Chapter 5, this guide helps you to locate both secret landing zones.

What Is the Layover Challenge in Chapter 5 in Doom The Dark Ages
The Layover is one of the three challenges in Chapter 5, The Holy City of Aratum. It tasks players with ‘Dismount the Dragon at two secret landing zones’. Upon completing the challenge, players receive 50 Gold, which can be used to upgrade their weapons at the Sentinel Shrine. Finding the two secret landing spots can be tricky unless you know where to look. Fortunately, both the landing zones are found near the starting area of the chapter.
Where To Find the Secret Landing Zones for the Layover Challenge in Doom The Dark Ages
Chapter 5 introduces the Mecha Dragon riding and provides a brief tutorial on its mechanics at the start. After completing the tutorial, a brief cutscene plays, and you arrive at the main Cathedral, which marks the actual starting area of the chapter.
Layover Secret Dragon Landing Zone #1
As soon as you reach the main Cathedral area, head to your left. There you will find a canon-wielding titan standing atop a platform at the outer perimeter of the building. Defeat the titan by entering the assault mode. Once defeated, a green marker appears and reveals the first secret landing zone for your dragon. Use the interaction button to land your mecha dragon on the highlighted platform, and that completes the first half of the challenge.
Layover Secret Dragon Landing Zone #2
After mounting the dragon from the first secret landing zone, make your way to the centre of the circular building. You will see a Hell carrier marked as an objective on the top. Descend directly beneath it to reach the lower level, where you will find a circular platform surrounded by three pillars.
Enter the assault mode and defeat the titans on two of the pillars. This reveals the second secret landing zone with the green marker. Land the dragon on the spot, and that’s it, you have completed the Layover Challenge.
