Bethesda just unveiled Wolfenstein: The Old Blood. This game is a standalone prequel to last year’s shooter, Wolfenstein: The New Order. The expansion will be available for download on May 5, 2015 for Xbox One and Windows. The title will cost $20 in the United States, £15 in the United Kingdom, €20 in Europe and $39.95 in Australia.
Wolfenstein: The Old Blood will take players back to 1946, where the Nazis are on the brink of winning World War II. In a last-ditch attempt to halt the Nazi war machine, B. J. Blazkowicz has been dispatched on a two-part mission deep within Bavaria. The first part, Rudi Jäger and the Den of Wolves, sees Blazkowicz busting back into Castle Wolfenstein and going head-to-head with the warden in order to discover the coordinates of General Deathshead’s compound. The second part, The Dark Secrets of Helga Von Schabbs, follows Blazkowicz’s journey to the city of Wulfburg where an obsessed Nazi archaeologist is exhuming mysterious artifacts that threaten to unleash a dark and ancient power.
