Wolfenstein: The New Order Arrives May 20, Comes With Doom Beta Access

Yes, that Doom game that id's been working on forever will apparently have a beta, and those who pre-order Wolfenstein will get into it. Also, I guess it's not called Doom 4 anymore?

Funny hearing Boom Boom Boom in German. I figure if the Nazi's did take over the world blues music would be one of the first things they clam is "unclean" and destroy.

New games to play on new consoles, wooo! Was hoping that this would still release relatively-early 2014, since there hadn't been much talk about it as of late.

Looks like some good, clean fun. The idea that the new DOOM might have multiplayer is pretty weird.

And the classic Nazi stereotypes too. Nice Luger!

Has a very Industrial look to it, should have Ministry doing the soundtrack

Good thing Patrick isn't a regular on the bombcast anymore because this revelation is the sort of thing that would lead to physical altercations. Although I guess Jeff and Brad could still fight about it.

I hope this is good. Growing up on Doom shareware and Quake, id can poop in a box and I'd prob buy it. I even loved Rage (except that horrible ending).

I think it's super ironic that for me, qcrack.exe probably ended up earning them more money then they lost!

I CAN'T QUIT YOU.

(Edit: And yes, I realize id is not developing this, or many of the latest entries in their franchises. Just saying, Nostalgia is a terrible thing!)

Did it always have the subtitle 'The New Order' when it was first announced? Seems weird to have two next-gen (current-gen) games with 'The Order' in their titles.

As much as Doom and Wolfenstein have been lackluster as of late I'd give this a fair shake through gamefly.

This looks like a great FPS, the setting reminds me a bit of the Inglorious Basterds-part of Inglorious Basterds but set in a sci-fi version of the 60's. Still, this also really makes me miss Raven :(

Here we go again! Man, how much of their target audience was even born before Wolf 3d came out, let alone the original Wolfenstein?

If they re-reboot Doom, what do we call it? Newer-Doom? "Doom" the Third? DoomCubed?

Hm, I could totally go for some oldschool over the top FPS action right about now. Seems like the right time for a game like this.

Wow, Wolfenstein: The New Order looks a lot nicer than it did when we saw it months ago. I never thought I'd say I miss WWII-era shooters, but I do.

It is a little worrying that it's a "Doom beta" and not Doom 4. To me that would mean the creative direction of, what was, Doom 4 didn't go well so they're playing it safe and just remaking the original.

I've heard people say good things about Wolfenstein, but I think it's kind of awful that you need to staple on the promise of another much-more-anticipated game in order to sell the one you're currently pushing. I didn't like it when Crackdown done it, I didn't like it when Zone Of The Enders done it, and I still don't like it now with Wolfenstein doing it. It shows little or no confidence in the existing product, and it says to me "This probably isn't worth buying and the Doom promise is a cash-grab at best."

@goliath553: Single-player only for Wolfenstein, that's kind of why they're adding the Doom Beta, bit of consolation.

Hm... Less occult, more industrial, not a lot of steampunk.

Okay, videogame. I'm intrigued, show me more.

Don't understand how the Wolfenstein name still sells. Played a ton of the old one, but putting it on a new game is like labeling your shooter 'dated' in my head, whether that's true or not.

Perhaps comparable to the number of people that played Wolf 3D and also played the original Wolfenstein :P Also, stop making me feel old, I'm only 25 :(

Looks like some good, clean fun. The idea that the new DOOM might have multiplayer is pretty weird.

Multiplayer in the original DOOM games was preeeetty rad, hopefully it can recapture that.

Anyway, this new Wolf continues to look really cool. I appreciate how much they seem to be ignoring the modern shooter conventions that bore the piss out of me, like hiding behind cover while trying to kill enemies who are hiding behind cover.

Wow. That was the best video game trailer I have ever seen.

I am one of the biggest id software fans. Doom, and Quake shaped my life for over a decade. This looks absolutely amazing and hearing that there is a new Doom makes me happier than I've been able to be in a long time.

This is a blessing before the end.

Did I just hear him say "We cut the head off the cold war machine"? How can there be so much wrong with a single sentence?

1)That war doesn't seem all that cold in the trailer.

2)That's an awful mixed metaphor.

I have to say I was not at all interested in the new Wolfenstein, but this trailer's really making me change my mind.

Also, since when was there a new Doom?

They sure do ban games that contain swastikas or Nazi references. The last Wolfenstein had all of the swastikas replaced. They even had to recall the game shortly after release because they missed one little swastika somewhere. It's really dumb.

I played Wolfenstein The New Order back at eurogamer expo, and people will be surprised by how awesome it plays. I even made a thread for it on GAF for how much you don't have to play it like CoD without ADS, health/armour packs, etc.
