Is MachineGames making Wolfenstein 3?
Game developer MachineGames is officially returning to its rebooted Wolfenstein game franchise, following a long hiatus from the series. The last mainline Wolfenstein installment, Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus, launched in 2017. Following that, the studio released two spin-offs: Wolfenstein: Youngblood and Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot in 2019, before the series took an extended break.
After that, the developer dug into another iconic franchise centred around villainous Nazis: Indiana Jones, with 2024’s Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and its subsequent 2025 expansion, The Order of Giants. Since then, it appears that the studio has opted to finally return to the Wolfenstein saga.
While details on the new sequel are scarce, an early image from the game’s motion capture sessions have confirmed that Brian Bloom (as B.J. Blazkowicz) and Debra Wilson (as Grace Walker) are returning in the sequel. Xbox’s CEO Asha Sharma also stated:
“Wolfenstein 3 is officially in production at Machine Games. One of gaming’s most important franchises, and a team that has done remarkable work bringing it forward. Looking forward to sharing more.”
Wolfenstein is also set to get an Amazon Prime Video TV series adaptation in the near future.
