Asha Sharma, CEO of Xbox, announced that Wolfenstein 3 is in production at Machine Games.

In a tweet, she said, “One of gaming’s most important franchises, and a team that has done remarkable work bringing it forward. Looking forward to sharing more.

The game evidently opens in an interrogation cell with a chapter entitled Nazitraz. BJ Blaskowicz, the hero of the Wolfenstein games, is there and the German overseer starts to panic. It’s not much of a tease, but it will do for now.

Machine Games has been charge of the Wolfenstein franchise for years now, taking over from id Software and launching the rebooted series starting in 2014 with the launch of Wolfenstein: The New Order and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus in 2017. There have also been spinoffs and DLCs, but those two games were received extremely well in the market.
