It’s hard to quantify because on some level everything has changed, because we switched engines and rebuilt everything. So far it seems similar to Wolfenstein in that it’s hard, it’s kind of gory, but it’s still fun. At several points in the interview he would smile or laugh as he finished an answer: there are more things I could say, but they’re staying a secret for now. Jens is the director of the upcoming Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus (and its predecessor Wolfenstein: The New Order), and I got to speak to him after playing a couple of hours of an early preview build. Jens Matthies was in the UK for half a day and spent all of it in a room in Bethesda’s London office, a circumstance that lead Bethesda staff to describe him as an ‘absolute trooper’. Blazkowicz, war veteran and now resistance figurehead, has woken up in a 1960s America that’s unlike the 1960s America we look back on today. I recently got to play a larger chunk of Wolfenstein II, including the opening level shown at E3 and a level set in Area 51 from a little later on in the game. Everyone then promptly went from zero to hype in 60 seconds - or, more accurately, in eight minutes and 36 seconds. Wolfenstein: The New Order was received very well, and, in a turn of events that’s now almost surprising for a big game at E3, very little was known about The New Colossus until the bumper-length trailer was revealed. There’s already been a huge amount of interest in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus.
