Wolfenstein 3 Is In The Works, Multiple Reports Say
Fans eager for the conclusion of William “B.J.” Blazkowicz’s saga can breathe a sigh of relief: reports suggest that *Wolfenstein 3* is officially in active development at MachineGames. While Bethesda has yet to provide formal confirmation, reliable sources, including reporting from Windows Central and Kotaku, confirm that the highly anticipated sequel is underway. Specific details concerning the plot, gameplay innovations, or a potential release window are unavailable at this early stage.
This confirmed project will be the direct successor to the acclaimed reboot timeline established by 2014’s *Wolfenstein: The New Order* and 2017’s intense follow-up, *Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus*. The new title marks the first core entry since 2017, following the release of the co-op spin-off *Wolfenstein: Youngblood* and the VR title *Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot* in 2019.
The news aligns perfectly with the studio’s long-standing goals. MachineGames leadership, including Creative Director Axel Torvenius, has repeatedly voiced a strong commitment to returning to the franchise to properly conclude B.J.’s epic conflict against the alternate-history Nazi regime. Given the critical and commercial success of the previous titles, the development of a third mainline installment is a necessary step to provide closure for one of modern gaming’s most memorable FPS heroes.
