Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus takes players to 1960s America in an alternate timeline where Nazi Germany won World War II and now occupies the country. The story picks up directly after Wolfenstein: The New Order, once again putting players in the shoes of resistance fighter B.J. Blazkowicz. Alongside old and new allies, he wages a guerrilla war against the occupiers to free the United States.
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus delivers fast-paced combat and over-the-top gunplay. Players can dual-wield heavy weapons like assault rifles and shotguns, while high-tech gear like laser rifles and microwave cannons can vaporize enemies on impact. Certain weapons cause foes to explode or lose limbs and the axe enables brutal finishing moves. The game combines open-ended levels that support both stealth and action with more linear, scripted sequences. According to GOG, the main story takes around 10 hours to complete, while tackling all side quests extends playtime to roughly 17 hours. The New Colossus is a purely single-player experience with no co-op mode.
