MachineGames has officially started production on Wolfenstein 3, moving forward to complete its alternate history shooter trilogy. Xbox CEO Asha Sharma announced the project during the Xbox 25th anniversary FanFest event in Seattle alongside confirmation of returning lead cast members. Target platforms and launch timing remain unannounced as the game sits in early development.
Asha Sharma confirmed the production status through the social media platform X, providing the first public verification of the sequel.
Wolfenstein 3 is officially in production at MachineGames. One of gaming's most important franchises, and a team that has done remarkable work bringing it forward. Looking forward to sharing more.
MachineGames corroborated the announcement by publishing an excerpt from the working script showing chapter 1 titled Nazitraz. Visuals released from the Swedish studio confirm that Brian Bloom returns to perform motion capture and voice work for protagonist BJ Blazkowicz alongside Debra Wilson as Grace Walker. This project represents the first entry in the main series produced entirely under direct Microsoft ownership following the acquisition of parent firm ZeniMax Media.
The studio previously shipped Wolfenstein The New Order and Wolfenstein II The New Colossus before pausing the series to deliver Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Studio leadership previously indicated that the narrative path for Blazkowicz was planned from the start as a 3 part storyline. Beyond the games division, Amazon is currently developing a separate streaming television adaptation based on the property. Further technical specifications and platform availability details are expected once production advances past the initial motion capture phase.
