Wolfenstein: Old Blood

One of the most anticipated game installments to date, "Wolfenstein: Old Blood" serves as a prequel to the original "Wolfenstein: The New Order" game. It follows the main protagonist of the series, BJ Balzkowicz, as he goes back to the year 1946 before the war in "The New Order." 

Spanning eight chapters, the whole game is divided into two connected stories. In "Den of Wolves," Blazkowicz must break into Castle Wolfenstein and steal the coordinates to General Deathshead's headquarters. Meanwhile, in "The Dark Secrets of Helga Von Schabbs," the hero heads to the city of Wulfburg to investigate a Nazi archaeologist trying to obtain and unleash an ancient and dark artifact. 

The digital copy for the game is already available for download, while physical copies for Xbox One, PC, and PS4 will go on sale on May 15.
