Did Bethesda tease a new Wolfenstein game during E3 2016?

For the latest news, analysis and banter, stick to our E3 2016 live blog.

Publisher and developer Bethesda Softworks started off their E3 conference with a DOS menu screen listing some of the company’s games. It looks like one of them wasn’t mentioned on stage.

The name, New_Colossus, is now theorised to be an upcoming Wolfenstein game. While all of the other titles had release dates listed, this one only showed xx-xx-xx.

It’s a curious thing, but one we’ll probably hear more about in the months to come.

The series first debuted in 1981 on Apple II, DOS, Atari 400/800, and the Commodore 64 with Castle Wolfenstein. It really hit its stride with the 3D first-person shooter, Wolfenstein 3D in 1992 on MS-DOS.

Wolfenstein: The New Order was the last Wolfenstein game released in 2014, along with its stand-alone expansion pack, The Old Blood, in 2015.
