Doom 4 timeline

This is the timeline from Doom (2016) which apparently takes place in an alternate timeline to the original series (but shares the same hero from both).

Background
Reboot universe's timeline is generally considered to be a parallel universe to the original Doom, or Doom 3. Though its not exactly clear how it ties into previous series, other than Doom 64/Lost Levels ties into it, according to the developers.

As for when Classic DOOM series takes place in its respective universe see Doom Timeline and Doom Retcon Timeline (with original interpretation that they took place in 21st century and later retcons implying they took place in the 22nd century).

In general there is too much overlap for events of classic DOOM to take place in the same universe as Reboot DOOM series. Although it is roughly possible that if DOOM 3 events are ignored the 21st century timeline could be the past of the Doom 2016 universe taking place century before Doom 2016 (see Worlds and Time). It would have to be assumed original military/industrial UAC evolved into the cult-like UAC over the century.

If Doom takes place in the same universe as Doom 3 (either as a prequel in the 21st century or retconned as a sequel in the 22nd), Doom Reboot universe would have to be entirely seperate and parallel as it overlaps with many of the dates of Doom 3, and UAC's more cultic nature does not fit with the more scientific nature of Doom 3's UAC. Though it might be possible that instead of classic doom taking place in 2022 (it would have to be closer to 2040 as per the Art of Doom's timeline).

It's less likely that if classic series took place in 22nd century since it too would overlap with the events of Doom (2016), and its history (and it seems "Our Hero'" had been hell for perpetually for a very long time according to The Lost Levels, Doom (2016), and Doom Eternal).

Regardless of which interpretations are believed, some kind of parallel universe and time travel does appear to be in place, see Worlds and Time. This timeline only covers the dates relevent and mentioned in the Reboot series (as there is no clear indication how it interacts with events of Doom 64, and when the date of that event took place, or what universe it took place in, in this reboot). Doom 64 is mentioned as a foot note...
