A fresh distribution for the holiday season has kicked off in the EGS store, bringing a classic into the spotlight as a modern, action-packed experience. The title at the center of this event is a landmark first-person shooter that originally hit the market in 2014, inviting players into an alternate history where World War II took an unexpected turn. The game places players in a world where Nazi Germany, aided by advanced technology, managed to secure victory. Yet even in this darker timeline, pockets of resistance endure, determined to strike back and restore a sense of balance to a world gone mad.
Within this gripping narrative, players control BJ Blazkowicz, a seasoned operative whose body bears the scars of decades of combat. After sustaining grave injuries that put him into a long coma, Blazkowicz awakens with a singular resolve: to dismantle the Nazi regime and cut down its oppressive machinery. The character’s resilience and relentless drive anchor a story that blends daring action with moments of quiet, character-driven reflection, creating a rich tapestry that stretches across two pivotal eras, 1946 and 1960. The struggle is visceral, and the stakes feel intensely personal as Blazkowicz navigates a world where freedom is fragile and every decision carries weight.
Across the game’s visual landscape, players will encounter a meticulously crafted setting that juxtaposes bleak industrial environments with moments of stark, human vulnerability. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and the design team’s attention to detail ensures a believable yet unsettling version of history where technology has rewritten the rules of war. Combat unfolds with a satisfying blend of firepower, strategy, and improvisation, inviting players to leverage cover, timing, and cunning to outsmart a formidable foe. The pacing shifts between intense firefights and quieter sequences that emphasize investigation, stealth, and the discovery of critical clues that propel the story forward. Each location feels alive, telling its own piece of the bigger puzzle and pushing Blazkowicz deeper into a resistance that refuses to yield.
All screenshots from Wolfenstein: The New Order can be viewed here. The game’s visual storytelling is matched by its sound design, where the clamor of gunfire, the rumble of distant explosions, and the stark stillness of deserted corridors create an immersive experience that many players remember long after the credits roll. The result is a compelling blend of historical fiction and speculative technology, delivering a memorable portrayal of courage under pressure and the cost of rebellion in a world gone awry.
You can pick up the game here, bearing in mind that it won’t be possible to do so directly in Russia and Belarus. Players in these regions may need to register a new account, such as a Polish account, or use a VPN to access the distribution. Please note that the promotion is time-bound, available for the next 24 hours, until December 21, 19:00 Moscow time. A new game is coming tomorrow, continuing the tradition of seasonal drops that expand the catalog with fresh experiences. In another contemporary release, a new quest for the next-generation version of The Witcher 3 has also been localized in Russian, underscoring how this period blends classic titles with new updates that resonate across multiple regions.
