The Wolfenstein franchise has been fighting Nazis for more than four decades now, becoming a legendary first-person shooter series with a fiercely loyal fanbase. The original Castle Wolfenstein debuted way back in 1981, followed by Beyond Castle Wolfenstein in 1984, before id Software revolutionized the genre with Wolfenstein 3D in 1992.
Widely regarded as one of the foundational FPS games, it helped pave the way for classics like DOOM and permanently changed the direction of PC gaming forever. After several follow-up entries from different developers, the franchise found new life under Swedish studio MachineGames, whose critically acclaimed reboot series reimagined B.J. Blazkowicz's war against a Nazi-controlled alternate history beginning with The New Order over a decade ago now in 2014.
After years of speculation following 2019's Youngblood, rumors surrounding Wolfenstein 3 have ramped up this year thanks to multiple reports claiming MachineGames is actively developing the long-awaited sequel, though Bethesda has yet to officially announce the project. In the meantime, fans won't have to wait much longer to return to the franchise, as Wolfenstein is officially making its comeback with a new RPG this fall (via Gamefound).
