The mystery

Fans of the alternate-history shooter have waited almost a decade for the story to continue. A single photo of a script was enough to end the silence.

The answer

Xbox chief executive Asha Sharma teased the new entry with its name and a picture of a script, adding that she was looking forward to sharing more. Developer MachineGames, part of Bethesda, said in its own post that Wolfenstein 3 is 'in production' and shared a picture taken while actors' movements were being recorded. According to IGN, Brian Bloom returns as hero William Joseph 'BJ' Blazkowicz and Debra Wilson as Grace Walker, and the pair seem to be the people in that image. The previous main game, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, came out in 2017 and was set in an alternate 1960s in which Nazi Germany had won World War II. A co-op spinoff, Wolfenstein: Youngblood, followed in 2019 with BJ's twin daughters in the lead. The reveal arrives only days after Bethesda named its next fantasy epic The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel. No release date or platforms were given.

Now think about this

After nearly ten years away, what should a sequel change — and what should it never touch?
