Wolfenstein 3 is in production at MachineGames
Earlier this year, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma revealed on Twitter that she'd seen The Elder Scrolls 6. Now, she's announcing that MachineGames is making Wolfenstein 3 with a photo of the script attached to a tweet. I don't miss E3, but it feels like a step down in terms of spectacle to go from on-stage trailer reveals to an executive just tweeting it out.
Wolfenstein 3 is officially in production at @MachineGames. One of gaming's most important franchises, and a team that has done remarkable work bringing it forward. Looking forward to sharing more. https://t.co/YyX8LrbTvhNovember 12, 2026
MachineGames followed up a few minutes later with their own tweet, saying, "His reputation precedes him. Wolfenstein 3 is in production." As well as the same photo of the script, they attached a photo of Debra Wilson (who played Resistance cell leader Grace Walker in The New Colossus) recording motion-capture.
It's been a couple of years since Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, though MachineGames did release a Quake expansion for its 30th anniversary in the meantime. A page of script and a photo of a motion-capture session doesn't tell us much about how far along it is, but I wouldn't expect it super soon. It'd be nice to have something to tie into the upcoming Wolfenstein TV series coming from the same folks as the Fallout show.
What do we think they'll subtitle Wolfenstein 3? MachineGames has an opportunity to really mess with our Steam libraries by calling it "Wolfenstein 3D".
