Bethesda has announced a prequel to Wolfenstein: The New Order titled The Old Blood, which will release on May 5th as a digital download only.
Available for £14.99, the shooter is set in 1946 with the Nazis on the brink of winning World War II. Main protagonist B.J. Blazkowicz returns to embark on an epic two-part mission in Bavaria.
Part one of Wolfenstein: The Old Blood – Rudi Jäger and the Den of Wolves – pits BJ Blazkowicz against a maniacal prison warden as he breaks into Castle Wolfenstein in an attempt to steal the coordinates to General Deathshead’s compound. In part two – The Dark Secrets of Helga Von Schabbs – our hero’s search for the coordinates leads him to the city of Wulfburg where an obsessed Nazi archaeologist is exhuming mysterious artefacts that threaten to unleash a dark and ancient power.
Executive Producer at MachineGames also revealed that there will be new weapons and action which fans will really enjoy.
