Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus marks the thrilling eleventh chapter in the iconic Wolfenstein franchise and serves as a direct sequel to the acclaimed 2014 title, Wolfenstein: The New Order. Players step into the shoes of the fearless protagonist, William Joseph “B.J.” Blazkowicz, as he strives to spark a Second American Revolution.
Experience the action-packed gameplay from a first-person perspective, with most levels explored on foot. The narrative unfolds through engaging chapters that players must complete to advance the story. A pivotal choice made during the prologue dramatically influences the entire storyline, altering characters and plot elements across different timelines. Players can wield a diverse arsenal of weapons, many of which can be used in dual-wield mode, and a tactical cover system enhances the combat experience.
Following the intense battles of the first installment, where the notorious General Wilhelm “Deathshead” Strasse meets his demise, the courageous Kreisau Circle rescues the gravely injured William “B.J.” Blazkowicz from the ruins of Deathshead’s fortress before obliterating it with a powerful nuclear cannon. B.J. is currently recuperating on a captured U-boat named Eva’s Hammer.
However, chaos ensues when the U-boat comes under assault from the ruthless Nazi commander, Frau Engel, who abducts Caroline. To turn the tide, Blazkowicz hatches a bold plan to allow himself to be captured and taken aboard Engel’s imposing airship, the Ausmerzer, which looms ominously over the water. In a twisting turn of events, Engel tries to force her daughter Sigrun to execute Caroline, but Sigrun defies her mother, leading to Engel taking Caroline’s life herself. In a moment of redemption, Sigrun attacks Engel, granting Blazkowicz the opportunity to don Caroline’s powerful armor. He quickly severs Eva’s Hammer from the Ausmerzer and makes a daring escape back to the U-boat with Caroline’s lifeless body.
Now equipped with Caroline’s formidable armor, B.J. is fueled with a burning desire to return to the States, seek vengeance for his fallen comrades, eradicate every Nazi in his path, and ignite the flames of a second American Revolution.
