Wolfenstein 3 Rumors Take Shape as Job Listing at MachineGames Hits the Internet

Published 06/01/2023, 1:50 PM EDT

The World War II-based FPS series, Wolfenstein, might be getting a new title soon. Since 2014, the series has rebooted and is set in an alternate timeline where Axis powers won World War II. However, there has been a standstill in new titles coming into this reboot. After 2019’s Wolfenstein: Youngblood follows the adventures of the twins of the main character trying to locate their father, there were no new additions to the series.

The developers of Wolfenstein, MachineGames, are currently occupied with working on a new Indiana Jones title. Though the studio has started assembling a team for a new Wolfenstein title. Recently, ZeniMax Media released a job opening for its subsidiary, MachineGames.

This job opening for a Senior Animator has raised the eyebrows of many fans as they spotted an interesting requirement needed for the job. The job required the applying candidate to be familiar with FPS games and explicitly stated, “Passion for video games and especially for first-person immersive games.”

This may look like a standard requirement at first, but fans have connected the dots and are speculating MachineGames is working on a new Wolfenstein title. The hiring could not be connected to the current game MachineGames is working on. Indiana Jones is more suitable to be a third-person game due to its explorative and puzzle-based nature. Furthermore, the only FPS title MachineGames has majorly worked on is Wolfenstein.

This theory also matches up with a preferred skill mentioned in the listing, i.e., “Strong familiarity with MachineGames’ titles”. Over the last decade, the studio has been mostly limited to working on the World War II-based FPS franchise.

Although all this information regarding a new Wolfenstein title should be taken with a grain of salt. There is no official confirmation from the developers of the series that they are working on a new title. But looking at the fans’ interest in a new Wolfenstein title, it is highly likely the studio will give it the green light. Till then fans can sit tight and hope for the return of the American Army captain in his quest against Axis powers.
