Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is set in an alternate America, where the Nazis won the Second World War, and took over the U.S. This setting in the first game was one of its most acclaimed aspects, and it looks like Bethesda and developer Machine Games are really fleshing it out and making it richer for the sequel, to contextualize the game’s action that much more.
A lot of the game’s marketing has been based around that, too. Take this newest video for the game, for instance- this shows us the kinds of superhero shows that the game’s Nazis watch, recreated with all the cheese that characterizes 1960s television.
There’s no in game footage in this video, obviously, but for once, I don’t even care- I love just how well the world is being built for this title, and I really hope all of this comes through in the final game, too.
