Xbox Confirms Wolfenstein 3 Coming Soon and Id Software Teases Next Doom Game
It's been a busy week at Xbox Game Studios, with the gaming giant celebrating its 25th anniversary with a slew of new additions to its Xbox Backwards Compatibility on PC program, but it seems as though Xbox CEO, Asha Sharma, had one more trick up her sleeve, announcing late on November 12 that Wolfenstein 3 is in development, with id Software also announcing a new game in the works.
The news was shared in a post on X, where she confirmed that Machine Games would again be heading up development of the third game in the franchise reboot. Not much else has been revealed about the game other than a snippet of game script that seemingly reveals the return of Fergus, who kicks off a scene interrogating a prisoner.In addition to the Wolfenstein 3 announcement, id Software also revealed in a post on X that it is working on a new game at its Texas and Frankfurt offices. The studio hasn't outright confirmed that it is a new Doom game, but it did confirm that it is working with well-known Doom director, Hugo Martin on the new game, suggesting a new Doom game is in the works.
