April 2025
"Wolfenstein: The Old Blood" is a great addition to the series and has more action and gore than New Order, has improved stealth but Old Blood might feel too linear and there's no character depth like we saw in New Order. In Old Blood it's a very linear story-line and even the gameplay is shorter than New Order. If you remove the time it takes to complete all achievements and collectibles, this game will be completed in just 6-7 hrs or so. Hence in terms of story-line Old Blood took a hit but then again it compensated us with a massively action-packed game and more bloodshed than the New Order. The story and characters aren’t quite as interesting as New Order you might not be able to understand the background of the characters, New Order showed us the character depth of not only BJ but the side characters too and it felt that the game dev's actually wanted us to feel a connection to BJ but in Old Blood it's very simple. Old Blood is divided into two chapters and in the starting this game might feel slow, it is not paced properly and the linear maps offer slightly less freedom but there are new guns and different steampunk themed monsters and the addition of Nazi Zombies was perfect. This game is perfectly enjoyable and you don't need to play New Order to understand the narrative. I keep comparing them because New Order was just perfect (the story-line, combat, characters, game-play) and so New Order just set a high benchmark, yet Old blood is pretty enjoyable if the comparing part is left aside. 8/10

This prequel to Wolfenstein: The New Order feels like an old-school shooter from the early 2000s: bloody, brutal, and delightfully ridiculous. You play as BJ Blazkowicz, a guy who’s long past questioning why the Nazis are dabbling with zombies and ancient artifacts. Naturally, you fix all of this nonsense the only way you know how: with a shotgun and a good ol’ iron pipe. The game is split into two acts. The first is a classic spy thriller where you break out of a castle and "schedule chaos" with German efficiency. The second act? Imagine a horror movie marathon where the Nazis suddenly start auditioning for The Walking Dead, and you're the special effects guy with unlimited ammo. The gameplay is fast, the enemies are eager to line up in your sights, and the environments—from grim castles to creepy labs—are a treat for fans of the series. Sure, it’s not some deep philosophical tale, but sometimes you just want to throw a grenade into a crowd rather than ponder the meaning of life. The Old Blood isn’t a masterpiece, but if you’re in the mood to feel like Rambo with a sense of humor, this game will hit the spot. Just remember: in this world, ancient curses and zombies are no match for one very angry American with an unlimited supply of bullets and sass.

My favourite out of all the Wolfenstein games. The story is tragic, deep and emotional much like the New Order, and I have to say the story is better written here. The gunplay is just as fun as it was in the New Order, but not on the level of Wolfenstein 2. This game builds upon what made the New Order great, especially in the tragic story and writing, so that is why it is my favourite out of the trilogy (I consider youngblood NOT cannon). Trust me, play this before the New Order and your experience playing the New Order will be so much deeper.

Great game. Prequel of Wolfenstein New Order. The story was great, but I like the New Order story. This game story feels quite shorter than New Order. It took me like 4 or less hours to beat this game. If you want to collect some achievements like me. That's gonna take more than 4 hours. Graphics are the same as New Order. The gameplay is the same, but different mechanics. Weapons are different than before the 60s. Love the game and I hope Wolfenstein III coming out in the future, I hope
