After a confusing start to the mysterious game that was revealed at Bethesda’sย E3 2017 conference,ย Wolfenstein II: The New Colossusย gained some momentum to a satisfying finish during its reveal. B.J. Blazkowicz, the protagonist fromย Wolfenstein: The New Order, seems to be alive and well (even after the dramatic conclusion ofย The New Order). Check out the full reveal below. Keep watching. Don’t let the beginning confuse you like it probably did to so many others. It’ll make sense (dang cats).
Inย The New Colossus,ย we find B.J. attempting to form a band of rebels to fight against the Nazis in the occupied USA. As with anyย Wolfensteinย game, the weapons look like they were built for one reason: to destroy. Even the pistol looks like a devastating force to be reckoned with. But unlike anyย Wolfensteinย game, the setting ofย The New Colossusย will be in the USA. Viewers can see B.J. fighting off a ferocious crocodileย in the bayous of New Orleans, which is an aspect of the game I would never have expected.
Experiencing the unexpected is something that I like about theย Wolfensteinย games, and, from the looks of this trailer, we can expect to see a lot of surprises. But there’s also a lot of what you do anticipate from the franchise–like explosions, blood and gore, robotic dogs and enemy soldiers, a grade A story, unique characters, and the expectation that you’ll be able to fend off hundreds of enemies with a couple machine guns.ย Wolfenstein II: The New Colossusย releases on October 27, 2017, for PS4, PC, and
