    All MachineGames and Arkane Studios needed to do was make a straightforward, cooperative Wolfenstein experience. Instead, Youngblood replaces the series’ celebrated narrative twists and turns with humdrum XP grinding and a live-service model. It would be bad in most games, but the fact that it’s in a Wolfenstein title makes it sting a little bit worse.

Blazkowicz is a world class Nazi killer, he took down Adolf Hitler personally. B.J., 19 years later, having beaten the threat in America is now a Family man, with twin daughters.

Joined by their friend and gadgeteer Abby, daughter of Grace Walker, the head of the F.B.I., when they steal Grace's Helicopter and head to France, to find B.J. and bring him home. Wolfenstein: YB features a Co-Op campaign through the Nazi infested streets of Paris where you play as one of the twin sisters. If you want to play Solo that's fine, an AI will control the other sister. Wearing the cyber suits made by Abby you will harness a host of abilities to assist you in mission. From double jumping to turning nearly invisible you can go in Guns blazing, or take a stealthy approach, the choice is yours! Your arsenal will also grow in size and power, and are all customizable with three different sets of upgrades to a large majority of the weapons parts, everything from your standard pistol, to the Uberhammer, a weapon of massive power. Get the Deluxe Edition and invite friends that don't even own the game to join you Co-Op, though they won't get achievements unless the purchase the game themselves. Wolfenstein's legacy carries on, and fans of the series shouldn't pass this title up! Never played Wolfenstein? There has never been a better time to start!… Full Review »
