Asha Sharma, XBOX CEO, has officially confirmed that MachineGames is producing Wolfenstein 3. Sharma announced the news on social media, calling Wolfenstein one of gaming’s most important franchises and saying she can’t wait to share more.
The post she shared on Twitter featured a small portion of the script’s first chapter. The first chapter is entitled “Nazitraz.”
MachineGames Hinted Wolfenstein 3 Was Happening
MachineGames hasn’t been shy about their desire to finish the Wolfenstein trilogy. In February, a casting call revealed plot details, reportedly centering on a character named Sofiya. She’s described as an 8- to 11-year-old Ukrainian orphan who bonds with William Blazkowicz, the franchise’s main protagonist. The young character is also said to be traumatized by war, which makes her suspicious, but she’s ultimately described as a strong survivor.
That casting call noted that performance capture was scheduled to begin in April, with shooting extending into 2027.
Also in February, MachineGames studio director Jerk Gustaffson noted that the studio, which had been making Wolfenstein games since 2014, intended to finish the trilogy.
“We wanted to finish the trilogy. When we do that, that is something that I don’t want to comment on. It can be now, it can be later, but we’re not done with it. That’s what I can say,” he said at the time.
For now, there’s no hint of a release window for MachineGames’ next Wolfenstein game. Insider Gaming will continue to monitor the story and report any updates as more information becomes available.
