Bethesda has released a new trailer for Wolfenstein: The New Order, featuing an early scene from the game. According to the publisher, in this video, BJ Blazkowicz has an unexpected run in with one of Wolfenstein’s most cunning villains, Frau Engel. Wolfenstein: The New Order is currently planned for a May 23rd release. Enjoy!

The cutscene was entertaining and memorable. Let’s hope the game is true to it’s predecessors in terms of gameplay and most importantly, level design.
Also, I’m glad Bethesda decided to show us real footage of the game. I’m sick and tired of publishers faking ingame scenes and filling us with bullshit vertical slices.
there is plenty of footage in previews. I dont get why they cut the gameplay content from it.
🙂
For those who do not know, this game is being developed by former developers of Starbreeze Studios (The Chronicles of Riddick, Darkness 1, Enclave), so I look forward to it.
crazy old lady 🙂
That is the widest train I have ever seen.
Looks quite engaging and interesting….hope its great both gameplay/level design and story wise…
oh look, another game that makes germans seem like they where all nazi`s and that they all hated the jews. kinda ironic that he picked the gun though.
Yeah because we cant have a trailer for a game about nazis having nazis in it can we?
They’ve earned it.
Fellow German here. Let it go. History, or rather the conscious reflection thereof by large populations, advances very slowly and you’re not going to make any impact by responding in all seriousness to something so campy. In fact, I think it’s counter-productive. You seem to be taking the portrayal of these characters personally but they’re nothing but cartoon clichés and that’s not an insult, that’s actually what the creators are going for. The main bad guy doesn’t even have a German name! There’s zero pretend of realism or historical accuracy (alternate timeline fiction!). Wolfenstein was a fun arcade shooter, story in such games comes second. A means to an end. It’s only in marketing to the casual audience that story in this game is being emphasized. In this regard I agree with Dakan for once.
Irredeemably, comically “evil” nazis and their demise at the hands of allied “heroes” are tropes in video games because they make for an easy black and white morality while dodging any controversy that could arise from touching on present day issues. Remember that tactical shooter about the battle(s) of Fallujah that got canned for the publisher’s worries of being “offensive” to… I don’t know, military families in the US? Meanwhile nazis have become a dehumanized stereotype on the same level as zombies. The best example would be a popular mainstream shooter’s blend of both elements. A nazi zombie is the simplest possible enemy, it requires NO context to seem “evil”.
Gameplay notwithstanding, this Wolfenstein will fail in my eyes if it fails to provide plenty of comic relief. For instance the only acceptable final boss is Mecha Hitler.
I dont get it, instead of showing gameplay they show cutscenes.

Here old build, but there is the gameplay.
Its like the marketing department is hitting them witha stick “no this gameplay is old, i dont care if the game is meant to be oldschool, no bad devs, you will show cutscenes because games are all about that nowadays.
