Wolfenstein The New Order Full Story - Before You Play Wolfenstein Youngblood

The impact that Wolfenstein has had on the industry cannot be overstated. Though it originally started out as a top-down stealth franchise, once it was picked up by id Software thanks to a fortunate lapsing of trademarks, it went on to become, essentially, the father of the first person shooter genre- one of the most popular and enduring genres of this industry.

Like any other franchise though, Wolfenstein has seen its fair share of ups and downs. For many a year, it faded away into obscurity and irrelevance, with its name being remembered in the pages of history books, and nowhere else. In 2014, with the blessings of id Software, a Swedish studio named took on the daunting task of reinventing this great franchise, and doing so in a way that it wouldn't lose its identity, but also become relevant i the contemporary gaming scene once again.

Impossibly enough, they did it, and since that day, Wolfenstein has only gone from strength to strength. MachineGames, with support from Arkane Studios, are now gearing up for the release of their fourth (or their third, depending on how you look at The Old Blood) Wolfenstein game, and with days left until its launch, now feels like the right time to look back at the narrative that they've spun with all their efforts so far- because when MachineGames were handed the reins of the series, they made story and storytelling a primary focus, and managed to do a damn fine job of it.

So without further ado, let's go over everything you need to know about Wolfenstein's story before you play Youngblood.
