It’s been nine years since Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus left BJ Blazkowicz’s story on a cliffhanger, and fans have been waiting for the final part of the trilogy ever since. Machine Games has always said it wanted to finish what it started, and job listings and casting calls have hinted at a sequel for a while. In the meantime, the studio has been busy with Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and its Order of Giants DLC.
It’s official
Now it’s confirmed. As part of Xbox’s 25th anniversary celebrations, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma posted on X that Wolfenstein 3 is officially in production at MachineGames. She called it one of gaming’s most important franchises and said she’s looking forward to sharing more. Her post included a photo of what appears to be the game’s script.
MachineGames followed with a post of its own, saying “his reputation precedes him,” along with the same script image and a photo from a motion-capture session.
The cast is back
Xbox also confirmed that Brian Bloom and Debra Wilson are returning as BJ Blazkowicz and Grace Walker, the leader of the resistance cell that BJ joins in The New Colossus. Keeping Bloom in particular is a big deal, since his performance has been a huge part of why MachineGames’ version of BJ works so well.
No date or platforms yet
That’s all we know for now. Xbox hasn’t announced platforms, a release window or any gameplay, and the game is only described as being in production. Sharma also confirmed in the same round of anniversary news that Id Software’s next project is in development. Hopefully we won’t have to wait another nine years to see how BJ’s story ends.
