Looks like Bethesda is teasing another game reveal in the days and weeks to come, following on from The Evil Within’s announcement last month.
Similarly mysterious at this stage, all we have to go on are three images teased on Twitter - then shown in full on Gamespot - with a dark, sci-fi vibe and titles bearing the numbers 1960.
Early murmurs suggest that the title is something called Project Tungsten from Machine Games, a studio set up by ex-Starbreeze (Chronicles of Riddick and The Darkness) devs and acquired by Bethesda owner Zenimax in 2010.
This notion is supported by a follow-up tweet from Bethesda saying that the tease does not relate to anything being developed at bethesda Game Studios.
So what is Project Tungsten? Well, if a CV slip up from the game’s composer Julian Beeston is anything to go by, it could be a Wolfenstein title. Quickly corrected once it was noticed by the press, Beeston’s online resume briefly stated that he was working on a Wolfenstein title with Machine Games during 2013.
The last release in the series was 2009‘s Wolfenstein. And although it received fairly lacklustre reviews, the franchise still holds a special place in players hearts thanks to earlier entries like Wolfenstein 3D and Return to Castle Wolfenstein.
Indeed, Wolfenstein 3D is widely regarded as the grandfather of first-person shooters, ushering in the popularity of titles like Doom and, ultimately, the CoD’s and Battlefield’s of today.
Those games, however, have never allowed you to kill a robotic suited, mini-gun wielding Hitler. Unless there was some amazing Black Ops II DLC we missed.
