MachineGames has officially confirmed that Wolfenstein 3 is in production, with Brian Bloom and Debra Wilson returning as BJ Blazkowicz and Grace Walker. The studio accompanied the announcement with a page from the game's script and an image of Bloom and Wilson during performance capture. No release date or platforms have been announced.
The announcement is also notable for Quake fans. MachineGames created Dimension of the Machine, Call of the Machine and this year's Dawn of the Machine, while developers involved in those projects have referred to themselves as an internal “Quake Club”. The studio has also been working increasingly closely with id Software: id co-director Marty Stratton recently said the companies are “working more closely than ever”, including on technology and engineering.
Studio head Jerk Gustafsson previously said MachineGames had always envisioned its modern Wolfenstein story as a trilogy. The last mainline entry, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, was released in 2017.
