The trailer for Bethesda's upcoming shooter, Wolfenstein: The New Order, is now available on Youtube and my, oh my, does it look good. I'm seeing a lot of Nazis, crazy scientists, cool (dual-wielded!) guns, awesome speampunk mechs and armours and of course our favourite hero - B.J. Blazkowicz... wielding a wicked chainsaw. There's some funky music to go with the footage too! What could possibly go wrong here?
In addition to some classic-looking FPS fun the trailer promises something else... a "Doom Beta", whatever that may be... New Doom game? Reboot? Maybe just a re-release of the classic? Who knows - only time will tell. What we do know is that each pre-order will be awarded with a key to it, however the release date of the Beta is yet undisclosed. Interesting, very interesting.
Wolfenstein: A New Order will land on our consoles and PC's on the 23rd of May, so start warming up for eradicating some Nazi's - perhaps by playing good old Wolfenstein 3D?
Update: It's confirmed - the next Doom game is also in development and the entirety of Doom 4 has been scrapped. The game is made new from the ground up, so it really could be anything. See here for more details.
