Bethesda have released 6 screen shots from their up coming Nazi shooter “Wolfenstein: New World“, Bethesda also said that they will not feature any multiplayer mode in the game. Which is good news in my opinion, this way they can focus more on the single player experience.
The game takes place in an alternate 1960s, in which Nazis won World War 2. B.J. Blazkowicz has apparently been locked in an asylum since defeating robo-Hitler, so his discoveries about the world echo our own. Among them: some kind of large scientific leap led the Nazis to create an array of new technologies, and even win the race to the moon.
The technological achievements also lead the weaponry and enemies. MachineGames is trying for a retro sci-fi feel, introducing elements like a laser turret and various robotic enemies like drones and sharp-jawed robo-dogs. They want the game to be focused on movement, so you can duck behind cover but the game has no cover mechanic.
Finally, though Wolfenstein focuses primarily on action, you’ll be exploring and solving puzzles in various international locales. Specifically mentioned are Polish mountains, and the Berlin catacombs.
Now feast your eyes on the screens below.
