Release Date: October 27, 2017
Another installment of the best-selling FPS series, and at the same time a direct continuation to Wolfenstein: The New Order created by Machine Games. The Action of Wolfenstein: The New Colossus is set in 1961 – after waking up from a coma B.J. Blazkowicz and his companions find the United States of America occupied by the Nazis.
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is another installment of the best-selling FPP shooter series, created by Machine Games. The game is available on a number of platforms including PC, PS4 and etc..
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus continues the story from the previous installment. In 1961, B.J. Blazkowicz wakes up from the coma and, along with his friends, lands in the Nazi-occupied United States of America. Because of the terror that the Germans (led by Frau Engel) spread across America, the main protagonist is left with no other choice but to yet again take up arms and face the aggressor. Fortunately, Blazkowicz and his companions are not alone in this fight – they are being helped by Horton and Grace, leaders of the local resistance.
Interestingly, like the previous installment of the Wolfenstein series, The New Colossus presents an alternative version of history, where the Nazis were able to design Wunderwaffe – an incredible weapon that allowed the Third Reich to win the World War II.
The gameplay featured by the PC, PS4 and etc. release of Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus builds upon almost identical mechanics as those offered by its predecessor. Yet again, the foundations of the game lie in the exploration of vast locations (players get to visit e.g. Roswell, New Mexico, and New Orleans), completing a number of mission objectives and eliminating battalions of diverse enemies. On our adventure, we have to face both infantry troops and heavily armed retrofuturistic robots.
The main protagonist does not enter the battlefield unarmed – in combat, he utilizes his very elaborate arsenal. Among the available murderous weapons, one can find not only classic firearms (such as pistols and machine guns) but also more fancy pieces like Laserkraftwerk (a laser beam gun that disintegrates the enemies) or Dieselkraftwerk (gas powered grenade launcher, able to eliminate an entire group of adversaries).
What is worth mentioning, nothing stops the players from using 2 weapons simultaneously, provided that they have enough ammo. What is also worth mentioning, the developers once again decided to abandon the health regeneration mechanics in favor of the old-school med kit system.
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus offers a high-quality 3D graphics, which make perfect use of the id Tech 6 engine’s technology. When compared to its predecessor, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus features significant enhancements of textures and special effects that accompany players during the gunfights.

The second DLC pack included in the season pass for the first-person shooter Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus from Machine Games. The expansion called The Adventures of Gunslinger Joe puts you into the shoes of Joseph Stallion, whom you had a chance of meeting in the Episode Zero DLC.

The add-on takes you on a journey across the war-torn cities of the USA and even lets you visit the space. The mechanics in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus - The Adventures of Gunslinger Joe are not much different from those in the original game. The main thing you do while playing is eliminating armies of enemies, consisting of both human opponents and various war machines. You can take on those enemies using all sorts of inventive fire arms.

The first expansion included in the season pass of Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus - a first-person shooter developed by Machine Games and published in the fall of 2017. In terms of story, the Episode Zero add-on constitutes a prologue to the other three expansions and allows the players to familiarize themselves with the three new main protagonists featured in the DLC - Joseph Stallion, Jessica Valiant, and Gerald Wilkins, active resistance members fighting to defeat the Nazis occupying America. The gameplay mechanics do not differ much from what the players might remember from the base game - during the campaign, the player has to complete consecutive missions, explore various locations, and eliminate numerous opponents, including both humans and battle machines. The player is bound to appreciate the fact that all three protagonists are diversified in terms of abilities and preferred weaponry, which makes each separate playthrough a unique experience.
